I see criticism online that you can cut the leash with clippers. Meaning, how big would the clippers have to be - would a casual thief get away w/it?

In my opinion very strong lol.but if you have a dog worth a fortune its up to yourself.i find it a great product.c omelet elf happy with it.

My guess is a good pair of wire cutters could do the job. The thing is I just think the leash is the best way to decrease the risk. I use the leash at least once a week and so far so good.

I have a set that we bought for our dog. He is a chow/golden retriever mix. The clippers work well for what we use them for. We don't trim all his hair, just his legs, feet, ears and any excess hair on his hindend . Can't really say how they would work for a full clip but I think they would be fine. Hope that helps.

It looks like the wheels could be pried off, but I'm not sure it could be done without ruining the wheels. The wheels are not part of the operating mechanism so even if you broke the wheels, the clipper would still function--- hope this helps!

You would want to contact your local authority instead of trusting someone else's words over the internet. That said, I see no reason why this would violate the law as there is no length restriction. A fixed blade does have to be open carry on the waist though.

I found it to actually be a little bit larger. If you need extra links they're sold by Amazon, directly below the collar advertisement. I guess you could make it REALLY large if needed. It does have the quick release. If you're dog is very large or agressive, theoretically it can pull hard enough to make the quick release come undone. I had to remove several links for my dog because it was a tad too large. My only complaint with the collar is that there weren't any instructions that came with it. Not to worry.............YouTube taught me how to do all of this and use it properly. Great product.

This is the large size. I did replaced the ring that came with this (it wasn't soldered), but the next time I used it the handle came apart and my dog ran into traffic. She didn't get hit, but it was truly scary. If you have a sturdy leash, you can make your own version of this. Go to the hardware store and get a metal ring that's about 1.75" in diameter (it'll cost you a couple of bucks). Clip your leash to your dog's collar. Slip the ring on the leash, wrap the leash under your dog's stomach and bring it back up the other side. Loop the handle through the ring. That's all this product is... a poor quality leash with a metal ring. Save your money and make your own. This is the large size.

Hi Barb! I have unfortunately had to us this a few times...I try to bring it with me every time I walk my dog and I live in a very rural area. However some people do not obey the leash law our town has with dogs. On a few different occasions my dog and I were approached by dogs that were "loose" and unaccompanied by an adult...WELL...my HALT came in very useful! The dogs retreated away from us... and we were able to not be harmed in what could have been an ugly situation. I hope this helps you! :)

It does have a clip for a leash, but I wouldn't recommend using it. It has a tendency to pull too far too one side.

I have two Mini Schnauzers and the small to medium size I bought works fine. I slip the holder on my dog and then clip it to the arm on my grooming table. If you need more room for the height of your dog, adjust the arm on the table so the dog is standing in a comfortable position. For us, its a must when trimming under the tail area and clipping feet. I used to need someone to hold them to keep from sitting. The extra restraint seems to keep them still while I trim their brows and beard as well.

I'm afraid not. I actually purchased a set of Andis clippers before, and had to use different guards. Fortunately, local shops like Sally's Beauty Supply carry the same size guard for those clippers. Or at least they did at one point.

Just remember this blade is 7" long so you would be arrested for carrying a concealed weapon! The only way to get around this is to have a CCP.

Hello Tom,This is Jude from HappyDogz and I will be happy to answer your question.The dog leash can extend up to 16 ft long and yes you can lock the leash at different lengths. We just remind that youplease read the manual first and get the hang of using the mechanism first before using it on your dog.I hope this answers your question.Best regards,Jude(HappyDogz Team)

It is made very well the leash seems very tough but I guess it depends on the dog. The clip is very heavy and it retracts very quickly. I found out the hard way One black eye later. LOL!

Thats exactly what I bought it for and it works perfectly! The only thing is you have be very careful because you can easily cut your pet. If you go nice and smooth you will not have any issues. I use this to shave my dog and then I use normal clippers to do the finish work around the face and paws. This clipper is loud and a bit heavy but I havent had any trouble using it.

I have really thick hair and I just move the clipper slowly through my hair. I also don't allow it to grow two inches and then expect to single-pass it to an eighth inch length. However, I am on my second unit. (They're inexpensive.) The first one wore out and began not cutting cleanly, despite the measures I took. I don't like that I can't find replacement blades. I also don't like how choked the unit becomes with my hair, but that didn't really seem to change how it worked. It's *ok*. Don't expect perfection, but if you go slowly and cut hair a little at a time, you'll be fine.

if its knotted you may want to try a 4 or 5 blade, if your clippers use detachable blades. use the combs for maintenance. you must be able to get a comb completely through your dog before you use these combs or you can hurt your pet.
