I use clippers, first I used human ones which I already had, and when they wore out, I got some from Pet Edge, and they told me which ones they recommended. I keep their hair short, so it's pretty easy. I was afraid I would hurt them, but my daughter who went to beauty school explained that the only thing that the clippers would cut is whatever fits in thru the metal teeth. I was affaid that when I ran it over her stomach, it would get her little nipples, but that's not so. And when you run it over their privates, same thing. So, try it.. I love it....no hassles and our babies are happy because they trust us!
Which clipper was recommended by Pet-edge? I bought one that is small, electric, and has a number 40 blade. Its made by Oster. It seems to work for me. The grooming DVD I got recommended the large clippers by oster but I was leary about putting over $100. into buying them since I didn't know what I was doing...?? Maybe someday I'll get them.
