| What clippers are the best to use? I have a very tiny Yorkie puppy. She only weighs 1 & 1/2 pounds. I am having a very hard time finding clippers that are small enough to use on her that are of very good quality. Any suggestions? |

| wow. 1.5 lbs is super tiny. When I got Scottie at 5 months, he was about 4 lbs. Back then, his nails were pretty small and I was quite nervous about trimming them. I basically had to trim his nails in sliver-sized pieces, kind of like in shavings. Anyway, just be careful with the quik of the nail. And have the Kwik Stop Styptic Powder on hand.

| Thank you. I ordered the Wahl Peanut. That is the smallest clippers I could find. Hopefully this will work. I tried to use beard trimmers on her, but her hair is too thick. They could not do the job. Lol. |
