The LickiMat Classic Buddy XL is an oversized slow-feeder mat designed for dogs who need something to do with themselves. Spread it with soft food, yogurt, peanut butter, or wet food and let them get on with it — the textured surface slows them down and keeps them occupied.

The raised pattern of nubs and ridges works the tongue and encourages extended licking, which has a genuine calming effect — useful during baths, vet visits, loud storms, or any time your dog gets anxious. The flexible rubber mat is food-safe, dishwasher-friendly, and the XL size suits medium to large breeds without tipping or sliding.

Owners reach for the Buddy XL when they need ten minutes of peace or a tool to ease separation anxiety. It works as a slow feeder, a distraction device, and a low-effort enrichment activity — particularly effective for dogs who need mental stimulation as much as physical exercise.
