Everything you want to know about lick mats, our products, and how we work.
A lick mat is a flat silicone surface covered in textured ridges, grooves, and patterns. You spread soft foods like peanut butter, yogurt, mashed banana, or wet dog food across the surface, and your dog licks it off.
The repetitive licking motion triggers a calming response โ it releases serotonin and endorphins, reduces anxiety, and gives your dog meaningful mental stimulation. Think of it as meditation for dogs.
Yes โ and then some. ChillPaws lick mats are made from 100% food-grade silicone that is BPA-free, phthalate-free, and FDA-approved. These are the same standards used for human food-contact materials.
Licking is also a natural, self-soothing behavior for dogs โ it's what they'd do in the wild. Lick mats simply channel that instinct productively.
Always supervise your dog during use. If your dog is a very aggressive chewer, monitor to ensure they're licking (not trying to bite) the mat.
Lots of options! Here are dog-safe favorites:
Pro tip: freeze the filled mat for 30โ60 minutes before giving it to your dog. This extends the activity from a few minutes to 20+ minutes.
