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

 Ok for small dogs, need to upgrade sanders for med or large dogs July 4, 2008
The sanders included are small, so you will need coarse 1/2 bands for any pet larger than a toy breed. I have a dobe/aussie mix (large nails) that has disliked getting his nails trimmed since being a puppy. I need to replace the batteries after every other use or else the speed is not fast enough to grind his thick nails. After each use, I also disconnect the battery piece from the handle to retain the charge. Once familiar with the buzzing, my dog definitely prefers a Dremel versus a nail clipper. It is also difficult to hit the quick of the nail if you use a light touch. I like the cordless feature because it's easier to handle and easy to transport. However, I would suspect a corded Dremel would produce a more constant rotation. All in all, a good product with the exception of battery life. I resolved that by using rechargeable batteries. However, this product would work best with smaller breed dogs or cats.
 Review of Pet Nail Trimmer July 3, 2008
I have Pugs and they are very sensitive to nail trimming. This works very well (I use it on the low speed) and neither of my Pugs seem to mind it. It is so expensive to take them to the veterinarian for nail care, and this was not cost prohibitive.
Dremmel Pet Groomer July 1, 2008
First of all, using the Dremmel Pet Grooming tool is a lot less stress on me. I always have the fear of clipping into the quick while using clippers. Overall the tool is fast and painless. The only obstical to overcome is getting my dog to sit still when the motor starts.
 A great tool for the price June 30, 2008

I've used this twice, and really, for the price, it's a nifty little tool. I had originally looked at the peticure, but read reviews about the battery not lasting long, plus it costs twice as much. Thought I'd try this and it works great-especially if using rechargeable batteries. I know I didn't want a cord, and the batteries in a rechargeable unit will eventually wear out. This is great-if it runs down, you can pop in charged batteries and it keeps going.
I'm sure you can pay twice as much and get a better unit, but at least for me and my little chihuahua/terrier, this one does the job.
At last! June 27, 2008
After years of fighting with our two mini doxies this product has been a true find. It's small, easy to use and fairly quiet. And, not having to fight a cord is fantastic! Within a week I had both dogs' nails back to normal with much less mess, fuss and trauma to them and myself. Now they don't even look twice when they see me set up to do their nails.
