Title: Clippers
Post by: lolajays on August 29, 2008, 11:41:39 AM
Hi all!
I have decided to try grooming my dogs myself now I have two! Alice has a lot of coat to grow at the moment so ill leave her to it but Maudie has been spayed and has a wooly coat. I like to keep it long ish! The groomers have clipped her well she always looks stunning. I have read Michelles thread on blades to use but which clippers should I invest in? or does a coat king do the same thing as clippers?

We recently purchased Andis AGC 2 speed clippers  :blink: they are fab  :luv: I have 2 cockers both spayed and 2 golden retrievers with very heavy coats.
You can choose from many different size blades and the clippers do not get hot   :blink:
We spent years buying cheap clippers that blocked up and broke within 12 months  :-\
The Andis were over £100 but worth every penny  :blink:  they came highly recommended   ;)
I have never used a King coat so I can't compare  :-\

I was going to start a thread exactly like this today as I want to get a set of (fairly cheap and cheerful) clippers to start doing Tilly myself (doG help her  :005:). Her coat goes really fuzzy but it's not thick or heavy so I'll be looking at the responses here with interest too :D

I've got the Moser max 45 http://www.beststuff.co.uk/moser_max_45_pet_clippers.htm

Bought them on ebay then found it was a COLer selling them  ;)

Easy to hold and blades easy to change
