Could Anyone Reccomend A Good Dog Grooming Set?
My family has four schnauzers; two salt-and-pepper coats, one pure black, and one black-and-silver. we 're having a hard time with dog clippers, and it seems that we run through a set after one or two cuts of all four dogs. my mom usually sits down and cuts them all at once. our salt-and-pepper girls are not much of a problem. their fur is thick, but very smooth and short. our black male and black-and-silver female have thicker fur that grows a bit longer. their fur tends to get bristly and is tough to trim through as bunny fuzz.besides reccomending a good set of clippers, any other grooming tips are welcome.

How Do I Learn And Get Experience Dog Grooming?
There are no dog grooming schools nearby,which is crazy as i live in "the gateway to the west ". the only school around has outrageous tuition fees and since it 's a private college(and not a trade school) financial aid is not available. the basic bather class is around $1k(which in my opinion is useless in the field on it 's own) with a full grooming training/ classes around $8-9k plus materials you have to buy from them around $1-2kso without a school around my next best option is on the job training right?i have applied in nearly every grooming salon including big chains such as petsmart and petco. they are either wanting groomers with experience or the base level job gets filled and i have applied time after time. or they are always "accepting applications " but don 't tell you if jobs are available or not. they are even wanting experienced dog bathers! how is anyone to get experience if no one is willing to hire someone without experience?! (welcome to the experience that so many fresh out of college kids are feeling as well)i 'm getting really frustrated as it 's my dream to one day open my own grooming and cage-free boarding facility but at this rate i feel like i 'm never going to get my dream even off the ground!so what do i do? do i save up money to go to the nearest pet grooming school?...but then will i have the schooling but once again no experience and be in the same predictiment as before? do i just keep applying and applying and hope one day i get hired at a entry level position and learn grooming?help!
