I'm very pleased with this dremel. The only thing I do not like is it's not rechargeable. As mentioned in another rating, rechargeable batteries are a must.  Otherwise, it's inexpensive and it works.  I used low speed until I got the hang of it.  I got comfortable after doing a few nails and switched to high speed.  

My dog's nails are pretty big, but the odd part was they started to hollow out.  He's 80+ lbs.  So when I tried to cut them, they bent and I could only cut a chip out.  The dremel allows me to smooth out the ridge, so the surface was smooth. 

I can see why a dog would not like the noise this makes.  I only got to use this on one of my dogs.  I waited until he was so sleepy he didn't want to fight me.

My dog is too scared of this little drill for me to try it on him.

Had the Peticure and didn't care for it. Cost $20 for shipment to and for return. Should have spent the $20 on this item to begin with. Product works wonderful and rechargeable batteries are a must.

I have 3 dogs and usually take them to the groomers to get their nails trimmed. I dont know how they cut my Mastiffs nails, he wont let me go anywhere near his feet. I got this and that night did my small dogs nails. All was well, then I tried on my mastiff and he didnt like it. I got in his face (not a good idea unless you know your dog) and told him NO ( he was growling at me), then I made him lay down and magic happened. He gave in and I trimmed his names. He didnt even flinch. What a good boy. It worked wonderful and I had his nails done in a snap. And I dont have to pay a groomer. I highly recommend.

Before I found this Dremel, Baby Doodles (my Pug) would try to bite me every time I would clip her nails - and I was even careful enough not to cut the quick!! Now...WOW...she is like a whole new Pug. A definite 5 paws up. I use short sessions filing, then we play as a reward inbetween. God Bless my new favorite tool!! It doesn't bother me that it might take a little longer because it is easier on the both of us.

This tool is fantastic. Before using this tool trimming my pups (4 yrs old) nails was a nightmare. He hated his nails trimmed and I would always leave him with one or two bleeding nails. Not any more. Now my Husky lays for me (from day 1) and actually relaxes. I only use the low speed because that is all that is needed and it does a wonderful job, within minutes his nails are perfectly groomed and no more scratchy nails when he jumps up on me to greet me. And the price is great. Thanks Dremel!
