New grooming videos launched by Ancol



Ancol has teamed up with dog behavioural experts Pure Dog Listeners to produce a series of online video guides so customers can find out more about grooming and choose the right product for their pet.

The video guides feature Pure Dog Listeners Director Caroline Spencer testing out Ancol’s range of slickers, combs, brushes, clippers and tick tools on dogs and cats.

Sales director Sarah Lane comments: “We decided to make the video guides to show customers our wide range of grooming tools, how to use them correctly and help them to choose the correct grooming product for their pet.”

Ancol Pet Products has over 40 years experience in pet grooming products and this year their popular Ergo grooming range is bigger and better than ever.

“Following feedback, we have refreshed the packaging on our Ergo range to include grooming tips, illustrations and detailed guides for each product, plus a QR code which links through to our new videos.”

You can view the grooming videos at www.ancol.co.uk
