When can I clip my dog's fur?
Dog breeds without undercoats, which don't shed and can develop an excessive amount of fur, or older dogs with circulatory problems, can be clipped in summer. Dogs have only a few sweat glands on their bodies; they regulate their temperature through panting. Less fur due to clipping can provide relief. Additionally, the skin is better ventilated, and the development of skin diseases is prevented. Dogs with undercoats, on the other hand, can be regularly brushed with a shedding helper to remove excess fur. Dogs with rough- or wire coats, however, should be trimmed.
If you regularly clip your dog's coat yourself, it is advisable to purchase your own clippers. At Kramer Equestrian, you can purchase the right clippers for grooming your dog. The battery-operated clippers from Kramer, SHOWMASTER and Aesculap are suitable for outdoor clipping and for smaller dogs, while mains-powered clippers are more suitable for large dogs and lengthy clipping work. The small battery-powered clippers from SHOWMASTER are also very quiet and therefore very comfortable for the dog. Different snap-on combs allow clipping adapted to your dog and its coat.
