Any dog groomers? Can anyone recommend a blaster?

[Christmascinnamoncookie]

My walls are filthy, quite frankly. Our hairdryer died yesterday and takes forever anyway, it's ridiculous. Is it possible to get a reasonably quiet one? Goose is a major wuss when being dried but is the filthiest, possibly due to being lowest to the ground?!

I'm not a groomer, but I (and most gsd people I know) have a basic one off Amazon. Don't know if this link will work.

Ooh I think that I must get one of these for the donkey.

The first donkey I bathed at 6.30am on a warm July day and when he went into the show ring 7 hours later he was still wet.

I have a similar one off Amazon too.

They are actually decent blasters, I have two blasters in the salon, and one of them is that one. It’s not the quietest though, even on low setting.

My quietest is a sirocco combi stand dryer and blaster. I’m sure you can probably get just the blaster version. It’s my go-to for nervous dogs.

I’m only after it for the drying element. Saying that, my OH does the majority of the hair drying and is not keen (lack of room)

Somewhat more than I had planned to spend!

I have a fab blaster I bought back in 2014 and it’s still going strong. It’s more expensive than MM’s suggested one though.

I just use my own hair dryer on my dog although she is quite small it dries her really quickly, are they much more powerful for that price?

They’re not big. Mine lives happily in a cupboard

A blaster can practically blow a small dog off the table on the highest setting
I did a retriever yesterday which still took 45 minutes to blast dry on a high setting. A normal hairdryer wouldn’t even scratch the surface.

I did wonder if they were much more powerful but I suppose if you only have a small JRT a regular hairdryer does the job I only do it when she has a proper bath in winter.

I do that as well.
