LickiMat Tuff Heavy-Duty Dog Slow Feeders vs West Paw Zogoflex Toppl Treat Dispensing Dog Chew Toy
LickiMat Tuff Heavy-Duty Dog Slow Feeders
by LickiMat
The LickiMat Tuff series is designed as a more durable alternative to softer lick mats, using a thick rubber-like food-grade material with non-slip feet for stability. Its deeper textures hold wet, raw, and chunky foods more effectively than many standard mats, helping extend licking time for enrichment, slower feeding, and anxiety relief.
West Paw Zogoflex Toppl Treat Dispensing Dog Chew Toy
by West Paw
The Toppl is a treat-dispensing puzzle bowl made from soft yet durable Zogoflex material. Dogs work to lick, nudge, paw, or twist out wet food, kibble, or treats held in place by interior teeth, and the toy can also be frozen to extend playtime. Its open bowl shape makes it easy to fill and clean, and interlocking size combinations can increase the challenge.
