Is the Curry on a Stik only made for horses?
No. The Curry on a Stik can be used on horses, cats, dogs, or any other animal or livestock.
What is the difference between the two sides?
One side has coarse, cone-shaped teeth for the body, and the other side has flexible, fine teeth ideal for sensitive areas like the head, face, and legs.

What is Curry on a Stik?
Curry on a Stik is a double-sided, therapeutic curry comb for horses, dogs, and cats.

A TPE rubber overlay forms an ergonomic handle so it can be used comfortably with either hand.
Who makes Curry on a Stik?
It was developed by Jeff and Sharon, a husband-and-wife team who spent more than two years designing, testing, and perfecting the brush. The concept came out of roughly 35 years of riding and showing horses and the desire for a curry comb that would not fly out of the hand, hurt the fingers, or make a mess.

What is the brush made of?
It is made from a specially manufactured TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) rubber, with both the teeth and the ergonomic handle molded into a single-piece core. There are no rivets or screws to loosen or rust, which is why the makers describe it as having lifetime durability.
Can I use Curry on a Stik on dogs and cats too?
Yes. The same tool is designed for horses, dogs, and cats. The coarse side handles the body while the fine-tooth side works gently on smaller or more sensitive areas, making it a single grooming and massage tool for the whole household of animals.
Is it just a grooming brush or is it actually therapeutic?
It is designed to do both. Along with removing dead hair and grime, it massages skin, muscle, and fascia, releases the coat's natural oils, stimulates circulation, and opens micro-vasculature. The makers describe it as providing acupressure and massage stimulation and helping remove painful stagnation.
Is Curry on a Stik veterinarian approved?
Yes. It is veterinarian tested and approved by Chi Institute veterinarian Dr. Selmer and is endorsed by the Chi University for Integrative Medicine. Dr. John Langlois, an equine specialist at the Chi Institute of Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine, has also endorsed it for supporting the flow of Qi (energy) and Xue (blood).
Has it won any awards?
Yes. Both Curry on a Stik and the companion Corakko products have received the Family Choice Award. The award reflects in part the design goal of making the tool easy for children and people with arthritic or nerve-affected hands to hold.
Does it help with shedding?
Owners report that regular use noticeably decreases shedding and reduces dandruff while improving coat health. It loosens and removes old hair without roughly stripping or tearing the coat, so it pulls loose hair away while leaving the healthy coat intact.
Can it be used while bathing the horse?
Yes. Because the entire tool is sealed rubber with no rivets or screws, it can be used wet. You can work it through the coat with shampoo and water during a bath, then simply rinse or wash the brush clean afterward.
Is it good for people with arthritis or hand pain?
Yes — that was a core part of the original design. The patent-pending ergonomic TPE handle takes stress off the fingers, wrists, and elbows and works the same in either hand, making it suitable for children and for people with arthritic or nerve-affected hands.
How do I clean Curry on a Stik?
It is easy to clean: simply rinse or wash it under water. Its single-piece molded construction means there are no seams, rivets, or screws to trap hair, dirt, or moisture, so it stays sanitary and dries quickly.
What is the Corakko line that goes with it?
Corakko is the brand's companion premium therapeutic shampoo line. It combines nano-copper technology with the Chilean herb Quillac Seponaira and the Traditional Chinese Medicine herb Coptis Huang Lian, and is marketed as anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and anti-microbial to help address bacterial and fungal skin conditions.
