Why lick mats work for dogs:

Sustained licking triggers the release of endorphins and serotonin, producing a natural calming effect. Lick mats are used by veterinarians and certified dog trainers to reduce separation anxiety, ease grooming stress, slow fast eaters, and provide mental enrichment for high-energy dogs.

The SodaPup Tree of Life eMat combines ancient symbolism with modern enrichment science. Its intricate branching tree pattern creates deep grooves that hold spreads and wet food for extended licking sessions — ideal for challenging experienced lick mat users who need a higher-difficulty option. The suction cup base locks onto any smooth surface: tub walls, glass, tile, or crate panels. Available in green. Made in the USA from non-toxic, FDA-compliant TPE — dishwasher safe and freezer safe.
