Groomer let down
« on: June 23, 2008, 01:32:00 PM »
Hi All!
The only local dog groomer has let me down again, total pain, and Maddi is in DIRE need of a haircut, she got scalped the last time, and ideally I don't want her this short again, so - I'm going to give it a bash myself.  I've read old posts and am bidding on a pair of Moser Max 45's on Ebay.  So wish me (and Maddi) luck.

I must ask though - what is the difference between hooman and doggie clippers?  ph34r

not much really except the higher the number on doggy clippers the shorter it goes so reverse of hooman ones. I have used both on my dogs!  ph34r  :005:

You can do it!  :blink:

Dog clippers are more heavy duty than human clippers as dog hair is more thick and dense. Don't bother with human clippers, get the kind meant for dogs  ;)
