It is a settling behaviour, which is why lick mats get used as much for anxious dogs as for greedy ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTextured silicone surface that holds soft food in the grooves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuction base that grips tile, glass and smooth floors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible silicone — bends to release stuck-on food\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDishwasher safe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree colours: orange, blue and purple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat to put on it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnything soft enough to spread and safe for dogs: wet food, plain natural yoghurt, mashed banana, or a little peanut butter. \u003cstrong\u003eCheck the peanut butter label for xylitol first\u003c\/strong\u003e — it is used as a sweetener in some brands and is toxic to dogs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFreeze it for a longer session. A frozen mat easily doubles the time it takes, which is useful before you go out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere the suction works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTile, glass, sealed wood and the side of a bath. It will not hold on carpet, rugs or textured vinyl. Wipe both the base and the surface before pressing it down — dust is the usual reason a suction cup lets go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen it earns its keep\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBath time, nail trims, thunderstorms and fireworks, and the twenty minutes after you leave the house.
