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

 Awesome Tool! December 4, 2008
Dorene Mollenhauer (Portland, OR)
This is EXACTLY what I hoped it would be. Takes the nail right off without any pressure at all. I tried it on myself first and it took my nail right off..almost too easily. But I learned the pressure to give it. Battery seems to last a really long time. I am doing just a little tiny bit at a time until they (3 pooches)get use to the vibration. So far they don't mind too much, but I am very careful to not burn them by doing only a sweep over the nail.

I bought this item since I thought it would be a quick and painless way to cut my two indoor cat's nails. OMG...My first cat is a little skittish anyways and absolutely freaked out when I turned the Dremel on. It makes a lot of noise and my cat when nuts. My second cat is so laid back and not usually afraid of anything. I got one nail done before he went nuts. I couldn't get near them with this thing. It's too loud and not as easy to use as I thought. I'm going back to the clippers. They're quicker and less traumatic. Too bad I missed returning them back in time. Now I'm stuck with them. Maybe in a couple years I'll get a dog and be able to use them on it if I need to. What a waste of money.
 Nice tool -- here's a tip! December 3, 2008
DLW (San Jose, CA)
I just ordered this tool last week and followed the tips of others (getting my dog used to the noise, giving her treats, only working for very short periods). Of course, the treats were "scarfed down" very quickly and then she wanted to quit.
The solution!! I lined a bowl with peanut butter! Not much, just enough to keep her busy for awhile. It allowed me to work longer & she didn't even care that I was playing with her feet. When the bowl was cleaned, we were both ready to quit. I'll do this every few days until her nails are perfectly trimmed.
Hope this works for you, too.
works just the way it says December 1, 2008

We adopted a puppy in September. Our older dog HATES having his nails trimmed so I decided to try the new "filing" method these drills offer. It took 2-3 days of exposing our puppy to the sound & vibration of the tool, but after that he allowed me to file his nails. It's quick and easy. Little fido even fell asleep one time while I was doing it!
 My dog's nails are stronger than this product November 30, 2008

There was not enough power in the Dremel to groom our Golden Retriever's nails. Product was returned for a full refund.
