Amazon.com It's a rare human who actually enjoys clipping a dog's nails; and rarer still, the dog who enjoys it. Enter Dremel's cordless groomer, a quiet, battery-powered rotary tool that gently grinds down your pet's nails without cutting. We happen to know a particular hound named Sophie who's endured more than her share of cracked nails and bleeding nail beds, the result of the standard guillotine-type nail trimmers. Though she was a bit wary of the Dremel, she sniffed at it and decided it was harmless. Then we set it on the floor and turned it on. Sophie seemed concerned for a minute, but then lost interest. We let her get used to the sound of the Dremel for a few minutes, then got down to business. We expected her to cringe and pull away when we took paw in hand, for what usually follows is not pleasant for her. She submitted reluctantly at first to the Dremel, probably expecting the worst, but once we distracted her with a piece of rawhide, she forgot about the nail hubbub and let us carry on. The whole thing was quick and painless, which made a change for Sophie, and was actually kind of soothing for the humans, which definitely made a change for us. We followed the advice in the manual and alternated between two paws at a time, not keeping the abrasive on any nail for more than a couple of seconds, and we made sure each nail was cool before grinding it a second time. If we had a criticism, it would be to wish only that Dremel would include the -inch drum for larger dogs like Sophie as well as the smaller one. Other than that, it's a tail-wagger. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

piece of junk October 14, 2008 My dog hates it and so do I!!! She will not let me touch her claws with it and when I do I can not see where it does anything or takes any thing off. Not reccommended!!!
Good quality tool! October 14, 2008 i was originally going to buy the peticure tool online but it was out of stock...then i came upon this dremel made especially for pets...it's a great tool as long as your pets allow you to use it on them...once you get used to controlling it, it's great and works really well on getting my 20lb dogs nails down to a short length...now i don't have to trim as often as i did when using a traditional nail clipper...i recommend that you go to the peticure website for proper instructions on how to trim your pets nails with a rotary tool...overall a great product.
pet nail trimmer October 13, 2008 Good at what I need which is just smoothing out the nail after I trim it. Batteries don't seem to last long but could have something to do with me using rechargeable batteries.
Liking it so far! October 13, 2008 I have two dogs, a small one and a large one. I've not had to change the batteries yet and am still on my first sanding band. I've had it over a month and it's taken a lot of work to get their nails in shape. They tolerate it very well.
Great for maintenance, not so great for longer claws October 11, 2008 The poor dog usually shakes with fear when he sees us pull out the dog nail clippers, so we decided to pick up the Dremel nail grooming tool. Before diving in and using the tool immediately, I recommend turning it on and letting your dog get accustomed to the sound and the vibration. The instructions don't include how to angle it against the dog's paws presumably because you'll find technique and method that's comfortable for you and your dog. The vibration and spinning also rattles the tool so make sure you have a firm grip to prevent injury to you and your dog's paws. The dog's nails should be relatively short before you start filing away, otherwise, it will take a while to file it down to the desired length. We're also going to plan to groom the nails every other week or so to keep the nails from growing too long to be unmanageable.
Great buy and better deal than the $30 Peticure being hawked in those TV infomercials.
