Cheerble Wicked Ball Air – Motion-Active Ball for Medium/Large Dogs vs PAW5 Wooly Snuffle Mat — Feeding Mat for Dogs
Cheerble Wicked Ball Air – Motion-Active Ball for Medium/Large Dogs
by Cheerble
The Wicked Ball Air is a larger automatic motion toy designed for medium and large dogs that enjoy chasing moving objects. It rolls, bounces, and rotates on its own using three play modes—normal, gentle, and passive—and is built with a thicker shell than the smaller SE version. The toy is water-resistant, somewhat quieter than many electronic balls, and supports replaceable shell options for extended use. It is intended to encourage independent activity but is still not suitable for aggressive chewers.
PAW5 Wooly Snuffle Mat — Feeding Mat for Dogs
by PAW5
A premium handmade snuffle mat made from a cotton-polyester-spandex blend, designed to mimic deep grass or underbrush so dogs can forage for kibble and treats hidden in the fibers. It also works as a slow feeder and can double as a soft resting spot for small dogs. The mat is machine washable and is especially suited for dogs that benefit from enrichment or slower mealtimes.
