Not sure about their product but resistive touch screens can require quite a bit of pressure which is a separate step of training the pet to overcome this.
Another product in that space was CleverPet, I backed that on Kickstarter and our dog enjoyed it quite a lot but it also required some pressure

Side note: when I was basically doing browser emulation in Google's indexing pipeline 20 years ago, I ripped through a billion of the 4 billion top web pages and counted HTML tag attributes found in the wild, in order to prioritize emulation efforts.
"onlick" was a surprisingly common misspelling of "onclick". There must have been quite a few web developers wondering why their click handlers weren't working, but I imagined them furiously licking their screens, attempting to debug what was wrong with their taste-o-vision enabled webpages.

On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog. Well, except for the furries; I recognise at least one username here from my IRC days.
I had a similar thing where I kept spelling things "folating" pallets instead of "floating". I kinda miss the days where floating pallets were a standard UI item.
So a standard resistive touch screen?
