i was a skeptic at first but ended up liking this product. i knew i didnt want a pedipaws or pedicure because of the awkward way you would have to hold it. it thought they would be very hard to use on the back feet especially for a novice. it worked well in fact my dogs toenails have never been shorter. i still clipped first but since i am such a chicken the dremel aloud me to go much shorter. and if you hit the quick it actual stops the bleeding on high speed. However i do reccommend you use only rechargable batteries in this product or you wont get the power you need at of it. i found this out simply by accident. just stay relaxed and take your time with it.
Works great on dogs,cats and birds. Very quite so it does not scare the animals.
THE COMPARTMENT, AT THE BACK END, HOLDING THE BATTERIES (4AAA) KEPT LOOSENING AS THE "TABS" DID NOT FULLY ENGAGE TO HOLD IT TO THE DREMEL'S BODY. ALSO, WHEN ANY LATERAL PRESSURE WAS APPLIED TO THE TOOL, TO "GRIND" FASTER, THERE WAS INSUFFICIENT TORQUE, AND THE ROTATION STOPPED.USING IT BECAME SO EXASPERATING THAT I TOSSED IT.
Pros: once it's running, it does the job well. I would recommend it. And the dogs don't mind too much, especially the larger one. She will sit there & let me do it. The little one squirms a bit. The batteries last awhile too.Cons: Takes 4 AA batteries. And when I turn it on, it doesn't usually start. I have to start spinning the sander to get it going.
I've owned the pet Dremel for a couple of years and with a couple of exceptions have loved it. As noted by other reviewers, this thing is a battery hog. I have a German Shepherd with incredibly hard nales but I usually could get several uses from the batteries before having to replace them, especially if I was doing regular nail grooming. If I'd been neglectful of his nails, it'd take longer and would use more battery power.Combine the frequent battery changing and the, um, occasional dropping of the Dremel (hey, I'm working with an animal here!) the battery case no longer fits well. I recently upgraded to the Dremel Minimite 4.8v cordless unit and love it! It has a rechargable battery pack and with the higher speed, I can zip through the dog's nails in no time flat.I would still recommend this Pet Dremel for small dogs with softer nails though. I tried doing my parent's little dog's nails with the new Dremel but her nails are so soft that even on the low speed, it ground through them too quickly and I got one too short before I knew it.As for those who have said their dogs have been afraid of the Dremel noises, well, that's where you have to treat, treat, treat! Get
the dog comfy (I spread an old blanket on the bed and get my boy up there, which is a treat in itself) and have a good supply of his/her favorite treats handy. Let the dog sniff of the Dremel and treat. Turn it on without trying anything, then off and treat. Touch it to his/her body and treat. Turn it on, touch the butt-end briefly to his/her body and treat. While turned off, pick up a paw and touch the grinder to a nail and treat. Basically, let the dog get used to the feel, smell and yes, taste, of the tool. You may not even actually get to do any grooming the first time or two. The next couple of times, you may only get one or two nails done. Before long, you'll have your dog accustomed to everything and knowing what's expected and things will go quickly.I started off this way (cheese and chicken jerky are my dog's favs) and now, we go to the front porch and I sit and put him in a "by me" position. I reach down and say "foot" and he lifts one front foot. When I finish with it, I do it again for the other one. Then I have him move to lay down in front of me and roll over and I do his hind feet. It takes maybe 10 minutes to do everything then we have a rousing roun
d of chase-the-tennis-ball-and-get-silly. ;o) It's all about rewards.
Its a rare human who actually enjoys clipping a dogs nails; and rarer still, the dog who enjoys it. Enter Dremels cordless groomer, a quiet, battery-powered rotary tool that gently grinds down your pets nails without cutting. We happen to know a particular hound named Sophie whos 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 an
d 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, its a tail-wagger.
