It doesn't make much difference between human clippers and dog clippers. Many times, dog trimmers can be more compact or make less noise, so that the dog is not scared, but externally they look very similar. Unlike one size fits all human varieties, dog trimmers come in different sizes. The smallest and least powerful trimmers are designed for designing small to medium sized dogs with light to medium thick fur. The largest and most powerful nail clippers are designed to deal with the massive coats of large dogs or the extra thick coats of some of the smaller to larger dogs. Remember that there are small breeds that seem to have more coat than a dog, for these pets you will need the heaviest clippers to care for the best dog clippers.
If you are just starting to groom your dog, or are starting a grooming business, you may want to invest in a grooming kit. The kit would contain dog scissors, guards, scissors and comb. Some kits would even include an apron and instructional DVD so you can make the grooming process easier for both you and your pet. Just keep in mind the type of dog hair you want to comb so you can get the right type of trimmer to get started. Using a pair of nail clippers for a light coat on a dog with a thick coat can hurt the dog and damage its trimmers.
Dog trimmers also come wired or cordless. Cordless clippers are probably the best investment for the money really. While wired hikers are a bit cheaper and you don't have to worry about new batteries or being fully charged all the time, there is a tangle hazard you will have to worry about. When you use a wireless shutter release, you don't have to worry about your dog getting tangled up in the lead. You also don't have to worry about trimming near a power outlet, giving you the freedom to trim outside if you want.
If you're looking for the right pair of clippers, it should mean that you want your dog to look and feel his best on a regular basis!
