At Praline’s Backyard Dog Services, we believe enrichment should be easy for humans and exciting for dogs. And that’s why we’re so excited to introduce May’s Enrichment Toy of the Month: the Twirl Lick Mat by Lunoji.
I’ve personally been using the Twirl with Praline, and I’m not exaggerating when I say—it’s a keeper.
Let me tell you why.
Lick Mats = Mental Wellness
Licking is more than just cute. It’s a self-soothing behavior that releases feel-good chemicals in your dog’s brain. It’s calming. It’s satisfying. And it’s a powerful way to help your dog settle, whether you’re dealing with thunderstorms, guests, or just the post-zoomies need to chill.
What Makes Twirl Different?
Most lick mats are hard to clean. Not Twirl. This one is:
-
Double-Sided: Spread yogurt, peanut butter, or a favorite puree on one side, pop the other on top, and twist. Boom—both sides are now covered in tasty enrichment.
-
Easy to Prep: I can prep two lick mats in one movement.
-
Easy to Clean: Just add soap, twist it together, and rinse. Done.
-
Stackable: Perfect for the freezer or to-go enrichment on adventures.
We’ll be rolling Twirl out to all our clients this week, and I know you (and your dog) are going to love it.
Enrichment isn’t just a buzzword. It’s how we help dogs thrive—mentally, emotionally, and physically.

So next time you’re trying to help your dog wind down, decompress, or just enjoy a moment of joy… let them lick their way to calm.
And yes, this toy is worth the wait—shipping delays aside, it’s become a staple in my own enrichment toolkit.
