I have a standard poodle puppy 4months. What are the best clippers to clean the hair out of ears

I used Tiny Trim by Scared Cut(stainless steel) cuts face, nose, ear and paw. I cut hair around my dogs (pams) eyes. I really like this ball tipped serrated blade which cuts great and safe.

Yes and no. I have a German Shepard, and the clippers work on him. That being said it's a progressive task. Go straight to a short attachment and they'll get stuck in the long hair. If you take it once around with a comb about half of the desired overall length and then again with the shortest comb you want to use in the end, it'll work just fine. If you're pressed for time get something worth a stronger motor. If not, save the cash and buy this one.

I haven't had a need to use other combs. The combs that came with the clippers have been all I have required. My suggestion would be to find one you would like use and try it. Hope you have success.

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.

i thought it was fine, but im not trimming a kitten. my poodles are experienced with clippers so were no problem. my horse doesn't like them around her ears but she wouldnt like them anyway! I really like the clippers, after 2 dogs they did get pretty hot but the dogs didn't seem to care.

It depends on the trim you intend to do on your poodle. For a simple kennel cut, I use #10 on face, tail, feet, and #7 on body and legs. Before you purchase clippers, do purchase a good book on poodle grooming. There are also some good videos on YouTube that show which blades to use for various trims.

Your dogs must be clean when clipping. If you are clipping them without bathing, the dirty fur will quickly dull the blade. The blades cannot be sharpened, according to the guy who does my blade sharpening. I am buying my second blade and have had my clipper for about 15 months. I am a groomer and use it for small areas on dogs and for cats.

Blade 4FC cuts the hair on length of 9.5 mm (about 1 cm). That length is perfect for short body hair of my poodle and is recommended for the sporty style.

I have a dog with very course wavy hair and it cut through his tough coat like butter. I love these clippers so far they have worked great!

If the fur is getting caught in the comb, then you will need to brush the dog out before clipping. I just did 5 poodles, and had no problem.

I have a Lab and a Poodle. I bought two sizes. They work well on both of my pets. My poodle has black nails and the labs is more of a transparent nail. I clip the ends in one good strong clip, then I use a dremel to grind them down shorter and smooth them out. I can only attest for what I've actually used them on. I hope this helps.

These clippers can be used for poodles or horses. The blade is the key. If you want a close clip you need a 40 blade. This will be skin tight, often known as a surgical cut. If you want a little longer cut, a 30 blade. The 10 blade will only take off the curls.

I bought this product for grooming my toy poodle, I ended up never used it because it was very very noisy. I am convinced that I need to buy something over $100 plus in order to get a clipper which is not noisy. B Shear

My experience is only with the Wahl. I like it very much. It's light weight and doesn't heat up too quickly. My only negative is with the housing which is very smooth almost slick, and I've dropped it a few times. Once, I needed to replace the head, because it broke when it hit the floor. I'm more careful now, :-) It's a handy device, but it's not meant for heavy-duty work. I only use it on my small poodles...their faces, tail, feet and under the abdomen. It's a good addition to my other grooming tools but not a replacement for a stronger trimmer (one with switchable blades).

Both my yorkies have really fine hair, and it works very well. I don't have experience with other clippers, but I've noticed you have to cut the same area a few times and in different directions to get it really straight, specially when using those spacers thingies :)

I don't have a Cocker, but I do have a Mini Poodle and these clippers work great on her hair. I also use them to keep my Yorkie in a puppy cut. I haven't had any problems with the clippers. I just make sure to remove all hair from them and oil them after each use. Hope that helps.

I don't think it is a good idea to use for pet trimming, this clipper is good for short and close hair only, very quiet and smooth but if you are looking for a powerful one this is NOT the the right one for you. It is not hurt to try on your pet hair once.
