Veterinary professionals across the country recommend the Zen Bowl — and use it with their own dogs.

"I recommend licking enrichment to nearly every anxious patient I see. The Zen Bowl's rolling mechanism keeps dogs engaged far longer than flat mats or Kongs and the calm carries over for hours. It's now part of my standard anxiety protocol."

Dr. Sarah Mitchell, DVM

"Honestly? I almost didn't buy it. We'd already gone through two Kongs, a snuffle mat, and some $45 calming chews that gave him diarrhea. But Cooper took to this thing on the first try. Just put some yogurt in, handed it over, and he was quiet for like 20 minutes. That was three weeks ago. Now he goes to the bowl spot when he hears my keys. That used to be his cue to lose it."
