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 ½-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

It's just a dremel with an insert describing how to use it with pets. There's no guard to prevent one from dremeling too close to the quick.
If you already have a dremel, use that. Just let the pet get used to the noise, praise them, give them treats for staying calm near it. And once they don't react to it, dremel their nails being careful to not get close to the quick. The same way you'd do with any other nail trimming device.
If you don't have a dremel, you could get ... Read More

I purchased this with great hopes that this would solve the anxious time associated by triming the dog's nails. After following the prescribed method that came with the device and gradually introducing my Yorkie it just didn't work. She trembled for 20 minutes after just having it near her. If your dog is a bit nervous, this will not help. My Yorkie never wanted her nails clipped but this added noise and vibration and freaked her out!!! So I gave it to my daughter who has two larger dogs and ... Read More

Well, we've had mixed success. My one dog (90# Mutt - Emil)won't have anything to do with the Dremel. The other dog (80# Catahoula - Hilda) doesn't mind it. Hilda's nails are extremely tough - she broke the guillotine trimmer and even the plier type require a great deal of hand strength. And her nails get very long, very quickly. So instead of going to get them trimmed every 2 weeks, I thought we'd give this a try. Initially, both speeds worked but it didn't seem to do much sanding at low speed ... Read More

I got this for a puppy who was so terrified of clippers that I had to hand file her black nails. I bought it because the price was good and I didn't know if she would accept it. I did not want to waste the money in the event that my puppy would not accept that either. She was a bit hesitant at first but warmed up to it by the third paw. I have had it for a month now and have done 3 rounds with my adult golden and 5 rounds with my puppy on the same batteries. I don't know how long they will last but ... Read More

My dog Rex hates having his nails trimmed. This tool made it easy and painless on both of us. I was nervous to take a dremel to my dog's nails, but it took me about 5 seconds of using it to get over my nerves. One word of caution--keep fur away from the drum as it turns--fur will stop the drum if it gets caught. I had all the nails trimmed in about 2 minutes or less, and Rex was happy to be done so quickly. This is definitely better than using a clipper!
