Question 1

Does all the licking for such extended periods irritate the dog's tongue?!

Accepted Answer

We only use our lickimat to help decrease anxiety for a short  period of time - less than 15 minutes. We haven't found it to irritate the dog's tongue, but once the spread (we use frozen peanut butter) the dog loses interest so stops likcing.

Question 2

Are there different sizes for large dogs

Accepted Answer

Hello.  We have a Great Dane and she loves her LickiMat Tuff (she prefers the Soother and Wobble).  Remember, this is not about getting calories and a big meal into a big dog, it is all about getting the dog to lick for a long time, which you can do with few calories (yoghurt, peanut butter, smashed sardines, mashed vegetables, cream cheese, etc. spread on the mat.  The dog has to lick the natural rubber and press her/his tongue to get to the treat/spread/food.  Remember to train your dog to lick the treat under supervision.  It is not a chewy toy!  So when first training, use small amounts only in the middle of the LickiMat.  They will soon figure out how to use it with your training.

Question 3

where is this made?

Accepted Answer

Hello.  This particular product is designed in Australia and Italy.  We, LickiMat, are an Australian company.   LickiMats contains no Silicone or TPE - materials which can be harmful to your pet.   The Tuff series is a USA trademarked unique product with a strong chew-resistant base that sets it apart from all Chinese copies of LickiMat (the original and still best) and even American copies !!  The country of manufacture for any specific LickiMat will always be on the packaging.  Most of our LickiMats are made in a factory in China that makes products exclusively for us and we personally know everyone working there and oversee the quality.

Question 4

Do these Lickimats have suctions to stick to walls, appliances, etc ?

Accepted Answer

Hello.  The LickiMat Tuff has rubber anti-skid feet and is designed to be placed on the floor.  The LickiMat classics are made of Natural Rubber and will generally not move around on the floor - with millions sold, it is the best in the industry.  The LickiMat Splash is designed for use in bathtub, shower and other horizontal and vertical surfaces (grooming aid, etc.) and has a suction cup.  There is a video of someone pulling their car along the road using a LickiMat Splash somewhere on Youtube to show how it works.
