Why The Pals Plate?

Enrichment products like lick mats have become increasingly popular in recent years, particularly among dog owners. These mats are designed to keep dogs engaged and occupied, providing numerous benefits to their physical and mental wellbeing. That’s why we created The Pals Plate!

  • Reduces Stress & Anxiety

    One of the primary benefits is the ability to reduce stress and anxiety levels in dogs by providing them with a calming and enjoyable activity. The repetitive licking motion releases endorphins which can help soothe dogs and provide a sense of comfort.

  • Reduces Digestive Problems

    In addition to providing comfort, they can also be used to help slow down dogs who eat too quickly, which can be harmful to their digestive system. By spreading out their food on the mat, dogs are forced to eat more slowly and thus reduce their risk of choking or developing digestive problems and bloating.

  • Provides Mental Stimulation

    Finally, they are a great way to provide mental stimulation to pets, particularly for those who spend a lot of time alone or indoors. By providing a fun and challenging activity, dogs can stay engaged and entertained for extended periods, helping to prevent boredom and destructive behavior.

  • Meet the Owner + Founder

    Michelle, owner+founder of Peanuts Pals™, has been an animal owner for nearly three decades! When her senior chihuahua Peanut passed in October 2022, she made it her mission to provide the best care for not only her other pup Honey, but for every dog around her. After starting her pet care business, she learned more about enrichment products for animals and all the benefits they provide to our furry best friends. Launching an enrichment product line and spreading awareness of its benefits to other dog owners was the next step in her journey!
