The K-9 II earned its reputation the hard way — in working grooming shops. It has the power to push water out of the densest coats and de-shed a packed undercoat, plus the control to gently finish a small dog, all from one dependable machine.
This is the workhorse for high-volume grooming and for home users with large or double-coated dogs — huskies, shepherds, retrievers, and other heavy shedders. If you mostly groom small or short-haired dogs, a single-motor Mini or the lower-amp K-9 I may be plenty; if you want the strongest airflow in the line, see the most-powerful K-9 III.

Because it’s a true professional dual-motor dryer, the K-9 II draws 17 amps and requires a dedicated 20-amp circuit — it will not run properly on a standard 15-amp GFCI outlet. A simple habit prevents breaker trips on two-switch models: turn on one motor, count to three, then switch on the second, so you avoid a start-up amperage spike. (Need a dryer for a standard household outlet instead? The K-9 I, Mini, and Fluffer all run on 15 amps.)
Here’s what surprises most first-time buyers: a K-9 dryer has no heating element. The gentle warmth you feel comes from the motors themselves as they run, so the air is warm but never scorching — the temperature is naturally moderated to protect your dog’s skin and coat. It’s high-velocity airflow, not heat, that does the real work: it pushes water out of the coat and lifts loose undercoat for fast drying and easy de-shedding, while keeping hair from drifting all over your home. Because there’s no hot element, there’s no risk of overheating or singeing, even on long sessions.
Cheap plastic dryers overheat, melt, and fail within months. The K-9 line is built from fabricated metal to survive years of real use, and it can be wall-mounted to keep it up and out of the way in your grooming station or garage. Maintenance is simple: rinse or vacuum the filter regularly (more often in a busy shop), and replace the carbon motor brushes roughly every 9–12 months under heavy daily use. If you ever notice reduced power, extra heat, or black soot from the hose, that’s your cue the brushes need changing.
Want it even quieter or more comfortable? Optional add-ons include the K-9 Comfort Sleeve (protects your hand and arm from a warm hose, and shields the hose from bites and scratches), a car-style Heavy Duty Filter, the K-9 Muffler for lower noise, a 15’ hose, and a wall-mount bracket.
Each K-9 II ships with a flexible 10’ hose, a snap-on air-intake filter, a flat blower tip, a round blower tip, and an owner’s manual. Plus worldwide compatibility: a 220V version is available outside the USA, and the line is CSA, CE, and Australian approved.
A dedicated 20-amp circuit. The K-9 II and K-9 III both require 20 amps; the K-9 I, Mini, and Fluffer run on a standard 15-amp outlet.
Both are dual-motor 20-amp dryers. The II is inline; the III is side-by-side, which makes it the most powerful and easier to service. The II is the lighter, most popular all-rounder.
No. The warmth comes from the motors as they run, so the air is warm but never hot — coat-safe by design.
Yes. Many cats do great with a K-9 dryer — on a dual-motor model you may only need one motor, and on a variable model simply dial the airflow down.
