Dremel 7020-PGK Pet Nail Grinder, Quiet Electric Dog Nail File Care Set with 4 Sanding Discs, Safe Alternative to Dog Nail Clippers and Trimmers ,Grey

Product Information

Start by just removing a small amount of the nails so they can get used to the experience and realize it isn’t that bad. And, of course, always reward them for their cooperation after.

Start by grinding across the bottom of the nail, and then carefully work in from the tip of the nail.

Bear in mind that the Dremel tool can get really hot since the grinding head spins at high speed. Don’t hold it against the nail continuously – instead, tap-tap it gently against the nail to prevent heat build-up that can burn your dog’s nails. Battery-powered & rechargeable, the 7300-pt features a 3-hour battery charger and works with a 755-01 4.8 volt ni-cad battery Grinding allows you to follow the natural shape of your dog’s nails, resulting in a more natural, comfortable trimmed nail. When used incorrectly, nail clippers leave sharp edges at odd angles to the natural nail shape. This is uncomfortable for the dog. Dremel vs. Clipper for Dog Nails

Nail grinders are a fantastic way to cut your dog’s nails at home while minimizing the risk of going too deep and hurting your pup.

So what’s the consensus between a dog nail grinder vs clippers? It really comes down to you and your pup. Some dogs won’t go near a grinder because of the noise, and a grinder takes much longer to do the job than a simple clipper.

The included nail guard helps you grind your dog's nails at the proper angle, and prevents you from grinding them too far and risking injury. The guard itself is installed after you've attached a sanding disc to the PawControl's mandrel. After removing the nail guard's cap, you should be able to open the guard along its hinge. Clasp it closed around the head of the Dremel tool, aligning the base of the nail guard attachment with the threads on top of the PawControl. Close the guard attachment, then screw it fully into place. Finally, reattach the cap, which includes the angled ramp. Dog nail grinders or trimmers may not be fit for everybody. Some groomers prefer traditional pet nail clippers over battery-powered trimmers. I recommend you read about how this tool works, and maybe even try it within the 30-day return policy, to see whether Dremel tool is the right product for your Fido. If your beloved pup is scared out of his mind when you bring out the Dremel, use a bit of desensitization training to get him comfortable. Show him the tool and allow him to sniff it. When he smells it, give him a treat. This builds a positive association. You get the picture. The grinder has three different sized openings, which are appropriate for different sized paws. This means a single machine can work well in a multi-pet household.One of the more expensive options on the list, it is worth it if you have a dog that is easily spooked, because this model is blissfully quiet. The machine has a lot of options including multiple speeds up to 13,000 RPM, a standard sanding drum with three different sanding wheels, and a small drum with another three choices of sanding surfaces. It also has a clear attachment, which you can see in my video review guide, that collects nail dust. This is a benefit over other similar products because you don't have to worry about making a dusty mess each time you trim your pet's nails. The clear cover also acts as a fur guard, so you won't have to worry about Fido's fur getting caught in the rotating head. You might think this speed seems quite slow, but unless you are a professional who has a lot of experience working on dogs’ nails, you probably don’t want to be working with anything faster. This tool features a rechargeable battery for cordless operation and is compatible with most other Dremel rotary tool bits and accessories. My favorite feature is the 45° paw guide that assures you to file the nails at the correct angle to prevent injury.
