Frisco Silicone Dog & Cat Lick Mat, Pink vs Outward Hound by Nina Ottosson MultiPuzzle Level 4 Expert Toy
Frisco Silicone Dog & Cat Lick Mat, Pink
by Frisco
This affordable BPA-free silicone lick mat uses suction grips on the bottom to help it stick to tubs, sinks, or smooth floor surfaces during licking sessions. Its simple ridged texture works well with wet or semi-moist treats, and the flexible design is top-rack dishwasher safe for easy cleanup after grooming, baths, or everyday enrichment.
Outward Hound by Nina Ottosson MultiPuzzle Level 4 Expert Toy
by Outward Hound
The Nina Ottosson MultiPuzzle Level 4 Expert Toy is a challenging treat puzzle with multiple sliding, rotating, and locking components designed to test experienced dogs. Dogs use their nose, paws, and snout to uncover hidden treats in layered compartments, and the removable center wheel allows the difficulty to be adjusted. Built from hard plastic, it is more durable than many basic puzzles but still intended for supervised enrichment rather than chewing. It is especially well suited for dogs that have already mastered beginner and intermediate puzzles.
