LickiMat Tuff Buddy Color - Orange

The LickiMat Tuff Buddy is the tougher version of the Classic Buddy, designed for dogs and cats who love licking enrichment but need something a little more durable. With its popular cross-maze Buddy texture, this mat is perfect for thicker foods and sticky treats like peanut butter, wet food, raw food, yoghurt, purées, soaked biscuits and spreadable snacks.

Licking can help calm and soothe pets by encouraging natural licking behaviour, making the Tuff Buddy a great boredom buster for quiet time, crate time, bath time, nail trims, thunderstorms, fireworks or general enrichment. It can also be used to slow down feeding and make small amounts of food last longer.

The Tuff range has a stronger base than the Classic mats and is dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. LickiMat notes that it is suitable for both dogs and cats, but pets should still be supervised, especially during the first few uses.

Available in assorted colours including Green, Orange, Turquoise and Red.

Pet Patch Tip

The Tuff Buddy is a great upgrade from the Classic Buddy when you want a more durable mat with the same popular texture. For teething puppies or dogs who chew everything, use with a LickiMat Keeper and remove the mat once licking time is finished.
