From the brand


Mud, puddles (the bigger the better), more mud – these are just a few things our furry friends love. Chris and Lauren’s pooches Daisy and Davis are no different. Their favorite place is the great outdoors – unfortunately, they like to bring it back inside with them too. And so, Messy Mutts was born: a new line of fashionable and functional dog care products.
Dog & Cat Feeders/Travel Bowls

Chris has been designing stylish housewares for years. His eye for design is like a dog’s sense of smell. All Messy Mutts products are tastefully colorful, stylish, and most importantly functional. Just ask Daisy: “Woof, Woof” or Davis: “Bark!” They sure agree.

SLOW FEEDER ALTERNATIVE – The groove design of this 9.5 x 9.5-inch silicone mat will slow your pet’s intake of food while providing therapeutic benefit of licking. Spread kibble, yogurt, wet food, peanut butter, supplements, or any of your pet’s favorite treats on the mat and let their minds work while prolonging enjoyment. Mat works for all cats, puppies, and dogs, even those with flat noses. Pro Tip: Freeze for ultimate stimulation.
REDUCE BOREDOM & ANXIETY – As your pet works to get food off this mat, their minds will be stimulated, and they will be calmed and soothed by the promotion of licking. Perfect for stressful situations like bath time, vet visits, thunderstorms or fireworks. Licking mats also help distract from destructive behavior during separation or stressful times.
INTERACTIVE FEEDER – The structured nylon frame is designed for easy filling, carrying, and loading in and out of the freezer without spills. This ‘lickable’ mat also features a center bowl that holds up to 1 cup of your favorite liquids. Incorporate broths, eggs, or milks into the feeding routine while stimulating your pets mind. This mat is available in 3 different colors – Blue, Grey, and Orange. The framed design keeps the mess on the tray and off your floor. Freezer and dishwasher safe.
DENTAL HEALTH – Support your pet’s oral health with licking mats. The grooves and nubs help scrape the tongue, assisting with cleaning it. The licking action promotes saliva to keep gums and teeth healthy.
DURABLE SILICONE – Made from flexible, durable, and food-grade safe silicone. Each mat is BPA free and odor and stain resistant. We only use the highest quality for our products because your pet’s safety is our priority. Dishwasher safe or wash with warm water and mild soap.
