If you are a professional dog groomer, your dryer choice is indeed important. The idea is to find an accessory that will dry a dog’s fur quickly so you make the most of your time. The device should also have the appropriate attachments and operate quietly.
Some dogs startle easily, so you don’t want to buy a dryer that causes them to feel nervous in any way. While forced air dryers are great tools for drying an animal’s hair, that blast of air might come on too strong for some breeds.

Select an Ergonomic-Friendly Design
When choosing a dog grooming dryer or a grooming table, you need to focus on an ergonomic design. While tables are height adjusted to save your back, a dryer should provide enough power, so you can apply the heat directly without scorching a pet.
A lot of groomers hurt their wrists by waving the dryer back and forth. However, a high-quality dryer provides direct heat so you don’t have to throw your wrist out of joint.To ensure the best purchase, look for a dryer that features a double-motor, one with variable speeds. This will allow you to control the flow of air – important for working on various coats.
Other Important Features
Make sure the dryer has a durable shell and that it runs quietly. It should run at about 85 decibels (dB) at the highest speed. Added accessories should include the nozzles and hose. Choosing a dual-motor design will allow you to work on all sizes of dogs. Your hoses should be about 4 feet to 8 feet long and you should have at least 3 different nozzles with filters from which to choose.
You can also mount some dryers on the wall, which is nice when it comes to organizing your supplies. When you have this feature, you can access the dryer easily and save time.
Make Sure You Choose a Brand that Offers Replacement Parts
As you review the dryers online, you’ll also have to think about any future accessories or parts you may need. For example, It’s best to buy from a company that offers parts in the form of replacement hoses, wall mounts for dryers, filters, dryer stands, and motors. Doing so will give you added assurance that you can use your dryer for a very long time.
A Few Final Words
Having a workable and quality dryer is important, especially when pet parents have questions to ask about grooming. What you choose in your equipment then is just as important as your grooming skills, knowledge, and experience.
