Scaredy Cut Silent Pet Grooming Kit For Cats & Dogs - Quiet Alternative to Electric Clippers For Sensitive Pets - Right-Handed, Pink I've been clipping my own dogs for more than twenty years, and have been using a combination of scissors and electric clippers to do so. But my retired service dog, a shih tzu, has become very sensitive to and fearful of the sound and feel of the electric clippers. She's deaf, developing tunnel vision and has a severe heart murmur. This combination of factors causes her to pass out and/or have seizures when she's exposed to physical and/or emotional stress. Since she can no longer hear a baseline of sounds to allow her to filter out what's threatening and what's not, the clippers cause her a great deal of stress... and that causes me a great deal of stress! The physical condition for which I have a service dog is exacerbated by stress, so grooming has become a bad time for both of us... and for my present, working service dog, as he is trained to react to my stress. Bad scene, all around! Enter these clippers: I wasn't sure they were anything more than a gimmick, but the problem was dire enough that I was willing to risk it. As it turns out, they don't stress my old girl. I can get into places with them that were awkward and/or impossible with the electric clippers. I no longer have to pull out clippers, comb and scissors: these little scissor/clippers are all of those things combined. As I'm clipping around her feet (I like to give her Teddy Bear feet which require a scissored guide cut around the outside bottom of the paws) I can flip the clippers over and use them as plain scissors without having to let go of her foot and transfer from clipper to scissor. I don't have to hold a comb in one hand and the scissors in the other in the fiddly places where her hair won't stay fluffed out for the scissors cut. She does have hair, rather than fur, and these do a more precise job of cutting than clippers. They're easier and more precise to use around her eyes and in her hygiene areas than electric clippers. The tension on them is easier to adjust than on the electric clippers and they're easier to clean than the electric clippers. Although I don't like to clip dirty fur, I can with these. This is important for those times, like today, when she can't handle the stress of a wet bath, but she still needs some clipping. The electric clippers leave too much behind then. These clippers did an excellent job; and I can, when I need to, sharpen them myself. And last, but by no means least, these are so easy to pull out and use on the fly that I can take a few clips here and there on those spots that require more frequent attention (face, bangs, hygiene areas, paws)... no more, "Oh! Her face needs attention but we don't have time to pull out the clippers and go through all the ordeal and aftermath of a clipping session!" I also have a large cat who can't always get his nether areas completely clean. Clippers and cats, obviously, are not a happy combination. These work well for him, too. In fact, I would recommend these for use with children who have sensory issues as well.

We originally purchased the Scaredy Cut Silent Pet Clipper, because it was difficult to find clippers that would leave my dog's fur longer. We didn't want to spend money on a groomer and were worried that a groomer would cut her hair too short. Most people seem to prefer shorter hair on their Shih-Tzus, but we actually like her to look kind shaggy, but still groomed and clean. We're so glad we went with this clipper! Firstly, these clippers are very sharp and easily cut my dog's different textures of fur (both course and extremely fine). Secondly, they're extremely easy to use and comfortable! I used to use thinning shears and the metal would dig uncomfortably into my thumb and finger. The Scaredy Cut system has cushioned handles and the blades don't loosen themselves like other shears we've used in the past. Thirdly, this system comes with a ton of different attachments to help you achieve the length you want. We use the longest option and her fur always is the perfect length and even/consistent. Lastly, these clippers are really pretty and, although that doesn't affect the performance, it's definitely another reason that we love this product. We definitely weren't disappointed with the Scaredy Cut Silent Pet Clipper and it's become a staple in our household. Highly recommend this product!

This helped me keep up with my 2 pups hair growth. My dogs hair grows with ease and it is costly, but also a big deal to bring them to a grooms when its just me. (Lots of energy and are a team) I was able to cut both dogs hair without them fearing what I want to do when I bring my scissors out. They look out for each other, so I want them both relaying this isn't a bad thing message to each other. My cutting skills aren't great, however, the fact that I "can" get them trimmed down for the summer and thin out for the winter, without it being a big deal, I am grateful to have these. Cost effective as I save on 2 dogs. Thanks for the silence, no worries of accidental snips and cost savings are a plus :) (Side note : I do wish the combs were thinner in thickness/height as this would make it easier for "me" to operate them. Glad these exist and I had purchased.)

The product was fantastic for our terrified terrier and we thought it was perfect. However, the plate that you fit the grooming guard too snapped off after just a few uses. It’s a metal plate and looks like it was soldered on but it broke clean off. I have asked for a replacement or repair but have heard nothing back and that was months ago
