Hello! I'm looking for an inexpensive set of clippers for Mia. She has, what seems like, a double coat of hair now and since I don't have the means to take her to a groomer right now, I want to give her a nice trim since it's getting warmer, and because I want to be able to see any potential bugs that try to go on her. Any suggestions? That is her right now. Thank you in advance! Stay safe and healthy!

I'm a fan of both the Andis and Oster clippers for dogs. Other brands that I've tried do not seem to have sufficient power to work through a dense coat. Be sure to use either a longer blade or guards to cut Mia's coat to your desired length. Personally, I like using a 3 3/4 blade for my fluffy pup. Hope this helps!
