I’d heard of snuffle mats but had never gotten around to trying them, so when a friend announced a sale of her beautiful homemade mats as part of a fundraiser, I went ahead and ordered a few. I was pleasantly surprised to see how much the dogs enjoy the olfactory workout, especially on those cold days when our outings are a little shorter. Snuffle mats come in many shapes and sizes and are easy to make at home with lots of great DIY videos online. You can also support small businesses and local artisans by ordering from sites like Etsy. Last but certainly not least, our feline friends enjoy them too!
