Thank you!  |
I use human clippers on Winston personally... and they work just fine since he doesn't have the heavy dense fur that other dog breeds tend to deal with. I also grew up watching my mother use the same (human) clippers on our schnauzers all the time with out a problem. When I have some free cash I'll be heading to Sally's and picking up a newer model. (Simply just because the 10 yr old cords are starting to worry me a bit.) I've used both "styles" ("human" vs "pet") and I've never really noticed a difference in heat or cut. Other people's experience's vary though and you will get opinions either way.
If you'd prefer to pick up a pet model to be super sure....
Oster has a huge listing of retailers here (this is their "pro" line aimed at the pet industry vs their "style" line salon use):
Oster® Pro Where To Buy - US Distributors
Andis has an online store:

I've also seen Andis at my local petsmart, and some of my local retailers. I do know Petsmart stocks their products online as well, so does
UPCO.
Wahls is a lot harder to find I think (if you want the pet line). They have their retailer listing here:
Wahl Clipper Animal Division
If you have a tractor supply store near you, that may be your best bet (or buy online.) Wahl also has their online store (just click "buy" under the product in the info page.)
If you have a local Sally's near you, if might not hurt to stop in or call and ask them what pet clippers they carry. They should carry at least one model. (Or they used to anyway!)
