 We went for a drive to Cranbourne on Friday. I had heard than mum was going shopping but I did not know that it was me, Indigo, who was going to get most of the gifts. Firstly, I got a professional grooming. I was taken to my favourite dog clipper, Carla’s Dog Clipping for a hydro bath, groom and clip, plus I had my toe nails trimmed. Then mum took the brand new but crappy clippers she bought on EBay.com.au and the brand new but blunt clipper blades she also bought from a different EBay seller, over to Clipper World at Cranbourne, on the recommendation of Carla’s Dog Clipping. That’s the thing with buying on EBay, you win some you lose some, some of mum’s best buys and worst mistakes were all on EBay, but overall she still returns, so I guess most purchases turn out well.  Other customers must think Clipper World are good because they have won a Highly Recommended for customer service in the 2007 Australian Achiever Awards. Clipper world’s web site, say’s it stocks the largest range of clippers in Australia and mum found a nice ergo metrically designed handled twin speed clipper that came with its own no 10(face ) blade.  Quote from the Clipper World, web site. “The best advice we can offer buyers is to be wary of cheap imported clippers on the market, our biggest customers are those who have purchased a cheap or inappropriate clipper that won't do the job and eventually have to purchase a quality more expensive clipper. “ end quote. That is exactly what happened to us. Buy cheap = sometimes you buy twice, certainly the case with clippers and blades, it seems.  Mum bought a new number seven blade, for when I am in tick and grass seed country to take my coat very short, but not quite as close as my face. That is the clip I have now. I am a country girl so I prefer it this way. The blunt 5’s she has left at Clipper World, for their expert sharpening service and we already have the narrow blade to clip in between my feet that will fit this new clipper. Then mum bought me a new purple retractable dog lead and a tick and flea collar to put on a week before I leave for the East of Australia, the paralysis tick prone areas. I do love my new clip and I hope when we travel and mum clips me, she will do a better job of it now she has professional tools for the job. Mum is happy that she has two size 10 blades, a size 7 a 5 and a set of toe clippers in a compact case that will be easy to store in the caravan and she will get my clipper blades sharpened at Clipper World, before and after each big tour we head out on.  I tell you I was beginning to be embarrassed posing for my blog photos, I was so much in need of yesterday’s clip and groom. The clippers mum bought to groom me:- Professional Rotary Motor Animal Clipper WAHL KM2 Two Speed · High & Low Speeds. · Cool Running. · Fast Cutting. · Lightweight. · Quiet. · Ergonomic Design. · Powerful 45W Motor. · Uses Standard Snap-On Type Blades.
