Where can i find a reasonable dog hair trimming kit?

I have a teacup poodle who hates his hair cuts! So, i thought that if I cut it myself it would make it easier for him! is it worth it?

Where can i find a reasonable dog hair trimming kit?

first off, there is no such thing as a 'teacup' anything - that is merely a marketing gimmick of irresponsible back yard greeders and puppy millers so I will assume you don't have a responsible breeder to help you learn to properly groom your dog. You need to take it to the groomer until you learn to do so and be brushing him every day or at least evey other day. He doesn't 'hate' haircuts, he is merely fearful of them because he likely hasn't had good experiences with them on a regular basis like he should have.

A 'kit' is useless -- you need to get some good clippers, likely Osters with an interchangeable blade so that you can groom the close parts with a ten blade, the feet, face, abdomen and around the tail end... then you can use a clip on comb if you want a fairly longer coat on the dog -- again, a groomer can help you with this since it isn't really something that should be a trial by error sort of thing or you can burn or cut the dog badly and it will then be even less happy about you coming near it with clippers. There is also other parts of grooming that need to be done that a groomer can help you with -- clipping the nails/grinding them with a dremel and cleaning out the hair in the ears - needs to be plucked out but you need to know what you are doing again so just suggesting some 'grooming kit' is meaningless and is a total waste of money. So no, it isn't worth it unless you have someone to help you do it correctly on a regular basis and that would have been a knowledgeable, caring breeder had you puchased from one that let you know you were purchasing a pet quality toy poodle instead of having to use some gimmick like 'teacup' to sell their products.

We don't really cut our dog's hair.

I'd think you COULD go to Petsmart. Some of them have a grooming section.

If you cut it on your own, I think it'd be a two-person job.

One to comfort the dog, and one to actually cut the hair.

Reasonable dog hair trimming kit... maybe Petsmart or the Internet. You can always check out sites.

Be careful not to cut your dog!!

Not really, in my opinion. You can find many kits on ebay.

The key is finding a groomer that your dog likes.

My two dogs love the groomers and the groomers love them.

Not all groomers are equal. Find one where the grooming is done out in the open.

don't go with "resonable". get an andis two speed. buy over the net.

"reasonable" clippers (those under $100.00) are slow and basically you will hate them, and so will the dog. You will need to read some on the blade types you want and some debate about ceramic v. not. Also, look at finishing blades and GET INSTRUCTIONS!

Many beginners cut their dogs, particularly on the ears etc. because they don't know NOT to trim edges... Those you need scissors for, and buy professional pet scissors, not paper or human scissors. They don't last and are dangerous when dull and, basically, a lousy investment.
