Finally, quiet work calls
My dog used to whine through every Zoom meeting. Now I load Rootle before my 10 a.m. call and get a solid stretch of peace.

How it works
Unroll
Pull out a few fleece strips from the ball.
Tuck in
Add treats or kibble, roll the strips back up and push them in.
Let them sniff
Watch your dog forage, focus, and settle down calm.
Tip: No need to fill every roll. 3 or 4 treats is plenty to keep setup quick.
Our promise to you
Every dog is different. If Rootle isn’t the right fit for your pup, reach out within 30 days and we’ll give you a full refund. No hard feelings.
8:30 a.m. You grab your keys and feel those eyes on you.
By noon, they’ve paced every room and sniffed every corner twice.
By 3 p.m., the couch cushion is starting to look like a snack.
You walk in tired, and instead of a calm hello, you get chaos. Plus that little wave of guilt.
You’re not a bad dog parent. Your dog just needs a job.

Meet Rootle
Sniff & search
Tuck treats or kibble into the soft rolled fleece strips. Your dog sniffs, nudges and pulls to find every last bite, turning a 10-second snack into real brain work.
Calm, naturally
Sniffing is how dogs explore their world. A good foraging session lets them use that instinct, so they finish happier, more relaxed and ready for a nap.
Mealtime upgrade
Serve part of their meal in Rootle and slow down even the fastest eater. No more bowl licked clean before you’ve even sat down.
Why dog parents love it
Tires the brain
Sniffing works their mind, not just their legs.
Settles restless energy
A go-to for work calls, rainy days and storms.
Slows fast eaters
Turns a gulped meal into a slow, fun forage.

Builds confidence
Every find is a small win, great for puppies and shy dogs.
Grows with your dog
Roll strips loose or tight to match their skill.
Easy to wash
Machine or hand wash, air dry, play again.

Got Questions ?
Is Rootle safe for dogs who chew?
RootleRootle is a sniffing toy, not a chew toy. The soft fleece strips are made for nosing and pulling, not biting. If your dog likes to shred or swallow toys, stay close while they play and put Rootle away once the treats are found.
How long will it keep my dog busy?
RootleIt depends on your dog and how you set it up. More rolls wrapped tighter means a longer challenge. Many dogs happily forage for 10 to 30 minutes, then settle down for a rest.
Can I use it for my dog’s meals?
RootleYes! Tuck part of their regular kibble into the strips and mealtime becomes a game. Just count it as part of their daily food so you don’t overfeed.
How do I clean it?
RootleMachine wash on a gentle, cold cycle, or hand wash in warm soapy water. Air dry only, no dryer. Roll the strips back up and you’re ready to go.
What if it’s not right for my dog?
RootleNo stress. You’re covered by our 30-day money-back guarantee. If Rootle isn’t a fit, reach out within 30 days and we’ll give you a full refund.

Slowed down dinner
My dog used to inhale his kibble in seconds. Half his dinner goes in Rootle now, and mealtime lasts long enough for me to actually sit down.

Marcus T.
Labrador Retriever
Roll them loose at first
Took my pup two tries to figure it out. Once I left a treat peeking out, she got it, and now she is obsessed.

Finally, a puzzle he can't solve in 2 minutes
My Aussie beats every puzzle toy. Rolling the strips tight keeps him working for about 20 minutes, then he flops down for a nap.

Dana R.
Australian Shepherd
Not right for my chewer
My dog wanted to chew the strips instead of sniffing them. They are upfront that it is not a chew toy, and the refund was easy.

Our thunderstorm helper
My pet shakes during storms. Rootle gives her something to focus on. Not a miracle, but it really helps.

Setup takes a minute
Filling every roll takes a while, so I only do 4 or 5. Still keeps my dog busy and happy.
Jordan P.

Bought a second one
One to play with, one in the wash. My dog spins in circles when she sees me loading it.

Rainy week saver
A full week of rain and no long walks. A Rootle session after breakfast made a big difference in how settled my dog was.

Kevin H.
Golden Retriever
Soft and well made
My pet loves it, though sometimes she just carries it around like a trophy. The fleece feels really good quality.
Natalie G.

A real brain workout
Herding breed energy is no joke. Fifteen minutes with this and my dog finally settles on his bed.

My puppy's favorite
Coco is 5 months old and nonstop. This is the one toy she keeps coming back to.

Rachel K.

Gentle sniffer approved
My dog is not a big chewer, just a big sniffer. Perfect match for him.
Sam O.
French Bulldog
Great for slow feeding
Works well for kibble. One star off because a few pieces drop inside the ball, but a quick shake fixes it.
Melissa D.
Labrador Retriever
Way less howling
I give it to my dog while I am on calls in the next room. The afternoon howling has mostly stopped.
Tyler J.
Siberian Husky
Small dog approved
I worried it would be too big for my 8 lb boy, but he pushes it around and pulls the strips out like a pro.

Jasmine L.
Pomeranian
Too easy for my dog
My dog figured it out in a minute and had every strip out fast. Nice toy, just not a challenge for him.
Derek M.
German Shepherd
Holds up in the wash
My pup gets so excited when I bring it out. Washed it twice already and it still looks great.
Brianna C.
Corgi
Bought one as a gift too
Got one for us and one for my sister's new puppy. Both dogs love it.

Fun, a little messy
Strips end up all over the living room, but my dog is so happy and tired afterwards that I do not mind.
Stephanie R.

Helped my shy rescue
My pet was nervous and ignored toys. Sniffing turned out to be her thing. Now she wags when she sees it.

Keeps her out of trouble
My dog used to bark at every afternoon noise. A quick Rootle session and she settles right down.
Grace T.

Our evening wind-down
After dinner, Rootle is our ritual. My dog sniffs every roll, then sleeps on my feet.

Megan P.
Golden Retriever
Good quality
Strong stitching and soft fleece. Wish it came with a few spare strips, but overall really happy.

Ben A.
Mini Goldendoodle
Smart girl, happy girl
My pet is very food motivated. This makes her work for it and she loves the challenge.
Olivia N.

Okay for us
My dog loses interest once the treats are gone. Good for about 10 minutes. It does wash up well.
Ryan S.
Boxer
Love that it is washable
Machine washed it on gentle and air dried it. Came out looking like new.
Chloe V.

Nose to the ground
A beagle plus a snuffle ball is the perfect match. My dog treats it like a mission.

Daniel E.

Took a few tries
My pup needed a little help the first time. I pulled the strips out slightly and she figured it out.

Sofia R.
Standard Poodle
Tiny dog, big fun
My little guy is 6 lbs and still has a blast dragging it around the rug.
Hector G.

Great on training days
I hide part of her training treats in Rootle. My dog stays focused and calm afterwards.
Lauren B.
Shetland Sheepdog
Supervise after the treats
My dog is gentle, but once the treats are gone he would start chewing if I let him. I put it away after and it is great.
Isaac M.
Labrador Retriever
Big dogs like it too
Even my 90 lb girl enjoys it. She is gentle with it and it keeps her nose busy.
Ava C.
Bernese Mountain Dog
Real pups, real sniffing, real calm. Press play and watch the nose go to work.
