Super PocketPro clippers :-)
 And I LOVE THEM ! They're small, they can't cut your dog and well.... easy I think  Does someone have a trimmer like this one ? Where am I allowed to trim ? I was thinking around her private area and under the armpit (if you say it like that in English  ) I'm going to try it after I post this topic Here are some pictures  -The trimmer   Here are the baldes #40-Fine cut and T-Blade #40 fine cut. So, are they the same ? T-blade just wider ?  And I have no idea what these are ? Thank you ! |

| I can't tell the length of the blade in the pictures but pocket clippers are usually too short for clipping privates unless you use a comb attachment. (Not sure if those shown at the bottom are long enough... they clip on over the metal blade for a little longer hair length.) Without it, it will make the girls super itchy/licky. You'll see them scooting and sitting down really quick. (Sigh... yeah, I tried it a couple of years ago.) They are good for between the pads- http://untilyoufindme.com/Pads.htm Still, watch for any nicks... it can still happen. |

I asked my mom if it would be OK to shave her around her private area and she said it should be ok. And I did. It went really well... until she started walking, like you said she was super itchy! And she was scooting and sitting down really quick. Then I had an idea to put her into the bath and putted a conditioner around the private area and it worked   She hasn't sat down once and I think that she doesn't itch anymore  .I also trimmed around between her eyes and I like it I can see her eyes !  But I checked on the package it arrived in... and they didn't tell the length  I'm googling it. Thanks again Jaclin. I won't trim her private again . |
| I've use scissors to cut around the privates... more around the backside than the underside, if you understand what I'm saying. I have a pair with a rounded tip, so if the girls move unexpectedly, I'm not in danger of jabbing them. It looks like your last photo, the one you say you don't know what they are, are comb attachments. If you put them on, they can result in a little longer cut, yes? I'd try the longest one and see if that helps you in the privates area. Also, did you get your Cherrybrook order? What did you end up getting, and how do you like it? |
Good idea with the conditioner!  The itching shouldn't last too long... maybe just a day or so. A quick wash after shaving helps to get rid of any loose hair clippings. When the dog is dry, baby powder may help with itching too. Put it on a tissue and pat the area. I groomed Emma last night and it included a sani-clip. I now trim private areas using an electric clipper with a #7 blade... no problems at all after the clip. A #10 is said to be good but I'm erring on the side of caution.  I'll be trying a #8.5 blade to see how it works. I trim everything else first, then the vulva/penis, then around the anus last. In other words the cleaner areas first, then the areas with more bacteria last just so I'm not putting a dirty (bacteria) blade on cleaner skin. Not sure if this is the "correct" way or not. Ok... too much info   |

I can't find out what size the comb attachments are I'll use the longer one next Yes, I did - thanks for asking  I didn't get my waterproof boots and the clicker But they send me a e-mail and said that they didn't sell them anymore and they also said that the clicker had arrive but it didn't They're so nice there and they where so sorry about this. Thank you Allison for everything 6Girls wrote: Good idea with the conditioner! The itching shouldn't last too long... maybe just a day or so.
