Are these good for Lasahopso dog hair? I have had trouble finding clippers that actually cut the hair.

I have Pomeranian's which have hair that is not quite as silky as a Lasa. They work great on them.

I'm only guessing here, but I think they would work. My dog, a Gordon Setter, has very fine hair instead of the rough fur you think of with a big dog. The clippers work well on her . . . . tho man! does it ever get all over the house!! (NOT the clippers fault!!)

I have a male Lahsa, and the 9308 worked very well on him. I did have to work in multiple direction due to his fine hair. All in all, I am very satisfied with the performance of the Wahl 9308 Pro Pet Clipper Kit.

This is true for this model. Other models have a second comb that will allow you a longer length, but it is difficult get the clippers to give a good cut if you cut your own hair. For longer hair someone will have to help with scissors.

Hi Kelly - I also am only a home groomer, but the Wahl Motion clipper cuts my Springer Spaniel's hair extremely well. His hair gets very thick and the blade cuts so well that I have to be careful not to cut his hair too short. Good luck and take care

I'm very happy with the 6-blade and think it work fine on a Pomeranian. The spacing of the blades is good. Perhaps if a smaller version was available with the same spacing it might be better. As always, on grooming issues, check with the breeder if possible, as they would know best.

Yes, we use it on our two dogs, a Westie and a Scottie. I found that Wahl does make a dog clipper just for dogs. You might look into that.

I use it on my golden. It is the best clipper I have found. It is easy being cordless. It is strong enough to cut through the fur though it does take a while with all the layers. My Golden loves it and feels so much better when she is shaved.

Yes, I have several brands of clippers and this works on all of them. Enjoy!

Hi Idlewood, I too am a non professional home groomer. After reading many blogs and watching many videos I think using combs is in many ways safer than a bare blade which heats up and burns the skin if not cooled often. If your clipper comes with combs, try to not buy a set which has all the sizes you get with the clipper. Ive used these combs and like them very much. They are put on opposite from the combs I'd used in the past.

It should work just fine on the sheepdog. Are you shaving the dog? I get a lot of "summer cuts " this time of year and my clipper works great.

Don't have a Lasa but this is the cliper most professionals use. I have schnauzers. You will have to check on blade sizes to use.

I agree with Lulu this IS a very nice clipper. I'm also a professional groomer and use it everyday. Sounds like you may need some additional instruction. I also agree with Melissa in that you can check out youtube but also go to the Andis website to see what they have available. Wishing you best success.

Yes they will fit. Be sure to follow the instruction. What most folks don't realize and it may be the instructions aren't as clear as they could be....you MUST place the comb over the top of the blade and PULL down until the comb is stretched onto the blade. It can be a tight fit but with use they will loosen up. Also, these combs work well on all types of dog hair, ie: fine or course.

These clippers should work fine for what you need. My professional groomer friends use them at their shops for all breeds. I use them on Irish and English Setters and they work great. I think they would work nicely for light trimming on my horse too.

I think you should judge. I like these and they cut very well I use on toy poodle and very tight curls and cuts with ease. I suggest these as great battery time and you could if necessary use combs that come with it (4) and if shortest slows down clipper just start with biggest and work done, I'm sure this also will work. My thoughts for you get it and you will enjoy it much better than any other clippers to me.Good luck with your decision. Amazon will work with you .

Luckily, I own a Siberian Husky named Luna. I just tried it out on her, and it cuts her hair easier than a hot knife through butter. As you can kind of make out in the picture these scissors aren't great at performing extremely detailed cuts though. Think of these like a paint brush that paints broad strokes as opposed to precise touch-ups.

Hi. I don't anything about your breed of dog. A friend who is a dog groomer said just about any comb would work. Just find one that you feel comfortable with. She said that the Mars # 6 blade would not be right.

My dog is Spaniel and Lahsa Ahpso. His hair does get matted, but I have to cut out the mats. You would probably need to use scissors on your dog first to get the knots out and then use the clippers to keep him looking good. They work really well on regular clips - I cut my dog about every 4-5 weeks.
