But if I was showing, I would probably think about it seriously as I know the forced air would really give that nice straight shiny look faster than a regular dryer and I love the "no heat" idea. It is the heat that damages their hair. I tend to let mine air dry a lot just for that reason. But they do not look near as good that way. A forced air dryer like these would be the best of both worlds. |
Well tis true it is pricey. I thought long and hard, but I have two very large show dogs, and my male particularly has a Huge coat. I used to spend 2 -2.5 hours blow drying him and this after 1.5 hours washing him out for show, then of course the scissoring, it was an all day event, that I broke into two days. Then when I got my female, I said, got to find a solution. And it was this blow dryer.
I agree, for one dog, unless you have lots of bucks, it is just too pricey. But even with three Yorkies, it would earn back it's price pretty soon.
I'm looking for a good travel stand dryer for shows when I just have the Razz man. We like when we only show the Yorkie, everything is so compact compared to our BRT;s. But hubby who is my BOB says hon, we can take the CC with us and the arm, not to much extra to lug around
I must admit I'm a nut about grooming. It is what I love the most about owning show dogs. The washing, the clean clean coat, the loverly smell of a groomed dog, the sheen that you get from good food, exercise, products, and just all that love and attention you give your pups. All my dogs, just love to get up on the grooming table. It means treats, and time with Mom. Lots of massage and loving.
