I have a Standard Poodle and a Giant Schnauzer. I cut her hair myself to keep costs down. I used an 8 1/2 blade. I used to be smaller, but because of that the Schnauzer got pimples that looked like boils, which made her very itchy. Size 8 1/2 doesn't irritate her skin and still looks short enough. My Standard Poodles look neat and trimmed to an 8 1/2 and I don't have to fiddle with different sized blades. The blades get hot after a few minutes of shaving and you have to be careful not to burn your dog. It would take too long to wait for the blade to cool down, so it's important to have several blades on hand. I like having 5 or 6 blades to freak out a big dog. 8 1/2 is not short enough to show skin but my family doesn't really like petting hairless animals so perfect :)
