I'll be cutting my 2 dogs and want to get a clipper that is quiet and doesn't get hot. It looks like the Andis has an inexpensive 1 speed model with #10 blade and attachable clipper combs for "non-professional use" and I wonder if it has enough power. What blade size would I use for a puppy cut? I tried people clippers on my dog this weekend....it is a good thing he can't see himself in the mirror.
