I have a german shepherd/huskey mix. His hair is really thick and he has an inner layer of hair for protection agianst subzero temps. Unfortunately, it gets to be over a hundred here and we went from mid 60s to high 80s in a few days. I tried to use a human hair trimmer/shaver and it could not cut the hair. It bound up on the first try. THe only thing that shaves him is a sheep shear trimmer. But that cuts his hair almost off to teh skin (image a beard trimmer with no guard). His hair is almost white and with it shaved off that close, he sun burns.
Does anyone know what type of shaver to buy that will maybe leave 1/2 or 3/4 inch of hair on him? He is shedding and I can fill 5 big glad yard bags with his hair if i use a brush. It isn't fun so I need to shave hmi. Any suggestions on what to buy that will be strong enough to trim the dog would be great.
