Why it matters
After some training, you fill the treat box and your dog digs at the scratch pad on top, filing its front nails. It also works as a puzzle feeder that slows eating. Zenly Paws says the file paper is self-healing, with marks fading within 24 hours.
Who it's for, and who should skip it
Good fit if
