I tried both scissors and clippers for the pads. If your pup doesn't mind the clippers and you're comfortable using it for her pads then I say clippers! It's faster (which also makes it easier since they won't start fidgeting if it takes too long) and I think it does a better job vs scissors. However, I'd use scissors for the butt area.

I like the ball point scissor and I also think thinning shears wouldn't be a bad addition to have. I use it on Magnus (he has MUCH thicker coat) when I try to even out his face.
