All was well, then I tried on my mastiff and he didnt like it. It worked wonderful and I had his nails done in a snap. I have 3 dogs and usually take them to the groomers to get their nails trimmed. And I dont have to pay a groomer. I got this and that night did my small dogs nails. What a good boy. He gave in and I trimmed his names.
I dont know how they cut my Mastiffs nails, he wont let me go anywhere near his feet. 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. I highly recommend. He didnt even flinch.
God Bless my new favorite tool. Now.WOW.she is like a whole new Pug. 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. A definite 5 paws up. It doesn't bother me that it might take a little longer because it is easier on the both of us. I use short sessions filing, then we play as a reward inbetween.
He hated his nails trimmed and I would always leave him with one or two bleeding nails. Before using this tool trimming my pups (4 yrs old) nails was a nightmare. And the price is great. 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. This tool is fantastic. Not any more. Thanks Dremel. Now my Husky lays for me (from day 1) and actually relaxes.
Most annoying.Since my dogs' nails were really long, I used the low speed. Dogs love it, it's inexpensive, and it's super gooey which keeps them busy while you work on their nails.I'd give this a higher rating if the high speed worked and it had a bit more power. I used a similar product on dog nails when I worked at a vet clinic. At all. When the Dremel arrived, I realized that the high speed doesn't work.
Here's a tip: If you dog doesn't get use the Dremel and constantly protests when it's pulled out, try giving them peanut butter. Nothing happens. This takes forever but works well. GREAT if you have smaller/medium size dogs (vs my collie and chow). The dogs don't like it but I'm sure they'll get use to it.
The Dremel Pet Rotary Tool is not a good purchase for pets with dark, hard nails. Perhaps it will work for pets with softer nails like cats or small dogs with light nails. I have a small dog so this size seemed ideal however, the tool does not have enough power to get through the nail and stops on contact with the nail. I do not recommend it.
