Ergo FAQs

How often should I use Ergo tools to brush my dog?

Short-haired dogs generally need weekly brushing, while long-haired or double-coated breeds often benefit from brushing several times a week to prevent matting.

What type of Ergo brush is best for my dog's coat?

Slicker brushes suit longer or curlier coats prone to tangling, while bristle brushes work well for short, smooth coats — check the specific tool's intended coat type.

How do I remove a mat from my dog's fur with Ergo tools?

Gently work through the edges of the mat with a comb before using a de-shedding tool, and avoid pulling directly on the skin, which can cause discomfort.

Are Ergo tools suitable for sensitive dogs?

Ergonomic designs with rounded tips are generally gentler, but always introduce grooming tools slowly and watch your dog's reaction, especially if they're new to being groomed.

How do I clean an Ergo grooming brush?

Remove loose hair after each use and wash periodically with warm, soapy water, drying thoroughly before storing to prevent bristles softening or rusting.

What's the benefit of Ergo's ergonomic grooming handle?

A comfortable, easy-grip handle reduces hand and wrist strain during longer grooming sessions, making regular brushing easier to keep up with.

Can regular use of Ergo tools help reduce shedding?

Yes, regular brushing removes loose and dead hair before it ends up around your home, and can also help distribute natural oils through the coat.

How do I introduce Ergo grooming tools to a puppy?

Start with short, gentle sessions and plenty of praise, building up gradually so your puppy associates grooming with a positive experience.

Is grooming with Ergo tools important for short-haired dogs too?

Yes, even short coats benefit from regular brushing to remove loose hair, distribute skin oils and give you a chance to check for lumps, ticks or skin issues.

Where is Ergo designed?

Ergo is developed by Ancol, a family-owned British business based in Walsall, West Midlands, with decades of experience in dog grooming and accessories.
