Awesome! Glad it works great? please let us know how it goes.
You are lucky to have gotten your breeders old supplies!Raffi looks awesome?! I too only have a hand held dryer for Sisko.
It didn't work because of the combs being plastic? I've only used the metal combs on Sisko, but I was lucky enough to get used clippers from Sisko's breeder after she upgraded. I think his tuckup looks good?.
I'm glad your family likes it!? Lol true! Raffi looks so good and I think you did a good job on him! I clip Sisko myself, but it never looks very well or even.
I shaved with the grain. I'm pretty sure it would be more even if I cut against the grain, but it would be shorter too and for now I want to keep him as long as possible. I don't have any scissor skills so that's not an option!Raffi is SO cute. My heart. I have a soft spot for fluffy black poos. Grooming your own dog is tiring but I’m having fun learning. I just used the wahl SS guide combs on my dog’s body for the first time recently and they are pretty awesome. I suppose if I groomed dogs for my job I might not be as excited to do my own! I appreciate that you shared the tools and comb lengths you used and the pics of your result. I think it’s such helpful info for novice home groomers like me. Did you shave with or against the grain of his hair?
Yeah! Oh, okay. I'll make sure to stick with metal combs. Oh?You are lucky to have gotten your breeders old supplies!
I've learned through this forum that the metal combs work much better than plastic, but I think that another part of the issue is that my cordless clippers are just cheap ?
Oops, fat finger mistake! I use a 30 under the combs, which is the recommended size although 15 or 10 are ok too.I have read that using a 40 blade under steel guards risks breaking teeth off the blade?
As always, thanks for sharing pics and specific details!
