Pet grooming professionals can be expensive and sometimes all you need is a quick touch-up. Home grooming has gained popularity in the last few years. The dilemma faced by the novice pet groomer is where to find the right animal grooming supplies – you'll need a variety of clippers, scissors, brushes, and combs. The supplies you need vary with the type of pet you have and whether that pet has long or short hair. The thickness of the coat also plays a role.
