Dog grooming shears are essential for people who plan to do their dog's grooming and hair cutting.
Things to consider: Type of shears needed and which shears to use for which jobs.
Professional Grade Equipment - Shears for dog grooming are among those items that are worth not skimping on. Professional grade shears retain their sharpness much longer than cheap commercial knockoffs. Spending the extra cash for professional grade dog grooming shears now will save you endless hours sharpening dull blades and/or countless dollars replacing one pair of useless scissors after another later on.
2 Pair Needed - Dog owners planning to be their own dog's barber/hairstylist should plan to own at least two pair of dog grooming shears -- one for thinning out thick fur and blending the edges, one for cutting the hair to the desired length.
Face Trimming - In addition to your regular shears, get yourself a pair of blunt-tipped scissors also, to use specifically for trimming around your dog's face and eyes. It is a delicate job that is far too dangerous to perform with heavier dog grooming shears.
