Dog Clippers FAQs
Are different clippers really necessary for different dog breeds?
Are different clippers really necessary for different dog breeds?
Yes — and it makes a real difference. Each dog’s coat behaves differently when clipped. For example, Cockapoo grooming requires a sharper, narrower blade than something like a Labrador's, which might just need a tidy-up around the edges. You can browse our full dog clippers by breed collection to find the best match for your pet.

I’ve got two dogs — can I just use one clipper for both?
You can, in some cases — especially if they’ve got similar coat types. But if you’re switching between a curly-coated Poodle and a short-haired Boxer, you’ll get much better results with the right blades. Our clipper blades and accessories are available separately if you’d rather not buy two full kits.
