Dog dryers.

[susanheulwen]

I have always used a hand held ordinary hair dryer for my dogs, which takes quite a long time. Does anyone have any info on whether a proper dog dryer is worth the financial outlay, as they seem to be expensive?

Hello,
Yes they can be exspensive.
But they do work, I use my mum's hair dryer on my dog!
But I groom and bath dogs at the kennels.
We towl dry them or leave them to self dry.
It also depends if your dog feels comfortable with it.
I would suggest that you find a local groomer and watch them use the fancy dryers.
It would give you a clue at the noise and how dogs re act to it, and how long it takes.
There are many brands!
