There is definately a difference in dog clippers and human hair clippers. I loaned my 1000 dollars worth of blades and clippers to a lady thinking she was going to use them on her husband and when she brought them back they were ruined. She had used them on her poodle. Dog hair is a different texture and will dull the blades very badly and it is not cheap to replace the Oster blades. My clippers were so packed with dog hair that I never could get it all out. Oster does however make great dog clippers also.
