Best Dryer For Dog Grooming?
Im away to open my own dog grooming business, where I did my training they had a cabinet dryer and blaster/dryer, our tutor said that there are cage dryers availabel or I could get a pig lamp and set up a little corner for which to use the pig lamp, can anyone give me there views, opinions or advice. Thanks
thanks for that, yes I was going to get a stand dryer/blaster to blast the dogs and use the dryer on bichons poodles, etc but was just hoping of another method for all the other breeds...thanks

The air force blasters are probably your best choice for a commercial use, and for a stand dryer, we used the metro top gun-3 in our shop. It was a hands off dryer for a good price. You really need your hands free when grooming breeds such as Bichons and Poodles in order to be able to brush-dry them correctly. Annie is right about the cage dryers, they can be extremely dangerous.
I use the 4 horsepower Metro dryer at home, but I don't see it for sale anymore.....just the 3 horse.

Depends on the size of your business.
Personally, I stay away from crate dryers. I've heard of inattentive groomers roasting dogs with these. So not good.
Many groomers use stand dryers safely and successfully.
I have a circuiteer dryer, but that is so high velocity that it will bounce small dogs around like ping pong balls!
