Hi Vilma,
A lot of people use the Air Commodore, it is easy to move around to shows
and comes in different power levels. I wouldn't be without mine:-)

I'm no expert so will only pass on that the owner might want to sign on to 
the showberners list on Yahoo.  Lots of experience there to query and 
archives to go through as well.

NE Serum is a great place to find all sorts of grooming stuff ...
They've recently changed their names to Pet Edge .. At www.petedge.com
-- I know they have blowers, tables, brushes, etc.

 I got this message below from a Berner owner who is not on the list.
Since I 
am far from a show ring grooming expert, I thought I would ask for
opinions 
to pass on to her. (When my Bean was finishing his Ch I was using my own
hair 
dryer and grooming him sitting on our kitchen floor!)

Thanks!

"Vilma,
I am looking into buying a blower for grooming my dogs at and for dog
shows.  
Basically, I need something portable, but powerful.  How many HP do I
need?  
Can anyone recommend a good brand?  I have heard I should avoid blowers
that 
blow warm or hot air.   True?
   I am also interested in getting a grooming table with wheels on
it.  
Does anyone know if there is a website that offers these for a good
price?  
   And of course I was thiking I need thinning shears for my dogs
ears 
and feet.  I'm thiking I should buy a good pair.  I there a brand
someone 
could recommend? 
 I guess with the number of shows I would like to attend, it is
easier 
for me to groom my own dogs than pay someone.  The groomer is often too
busy 
to get mine in for an appointment and is at somewhat of a disadvantage 
because she does so many breeds, and I kow what I want my dogs to look
like.  

Thanks in advance for any assistance."
