Give your dog more to explore at mealtime with the SodaPup Mandala Shallow Slow Feeder. Its intricate, mandala-inspired pattern creates a series of raised sections and channels that spread food across the tray, encouraging your dog to lick, sniff and work their way around the design rather than gulping down a meal all at once.

The shallow profile makes food easier to reach than in many deep slow feeder bowls, which can be particularly helpful for some flat-faced breeds, puppies and older dogs. The textured surface combines features of a traditional slow feeder with the food-spreading style of a lick mat, making it a versatile addition to your dog’s daily routine.

Use the Mandala for a full meal, a smaller snack or a special treat. You can spread wet food over the pattern, scatter dry kibble through the grooves or serve suitable raw food. Different sections can hold different ingredients, giving you flexibility when preparing a varied meal. For another kind of challenge, add an appropriate filling and freeze the tray before serving.

This bundle offers even better value by including one Mandala tray free of charge. Having multiple trays can make it easier to prepare enrichment meals ahead of time, rotate between feeding sessions or keep a spare ready for cleaning.
