To celebrate todays late night shopping in Corbridge, we are giving away a FREE box of Wzis dog treats with every snuffle mat. There are a choice of two mats and two treat flavours to choose from.

Snuffle mats for dogs are the perfect way to provide physical and mental enrichment. They're perfect for dogs of all ages! They help to slow down fast eaters, encourage them to use their sense of smell, reduce anxiety and burn energy.
