How would you like to stop all the problems with your pet? I have some good new but it will take some time on your part. Obedience training will bring out the best in your pet.

Default PediPaws

We have the PediPaws and have not been pleased with it at all. Even though our dog is extremely patient, even he will not sit there for the hour or two this would take to get his nails done. It is simply not powerful enough for a large breed dogs nails.

I have tried it, and it is not a very effective tool! I would purchase a profesional version, the motor is just not strong enough to do the job. Great concept but poor strength, get the proffessional Oster one...

My mother gave me the Pedi Paws for Christmas. I haven't tried it yet but I have my doubts about it too. Would be nice if it worked though--My 'pure' cocker has black-black toenails and is very touchy about even messing with his feet. The cocker/golden retriever lets me cut his and I can see the 'quick' so is much easier. Cost me $10+ to have the vet trim them--(the pure cocker) He is a perfect angel at the vet's office!!!

Mr friend uses it on her dog and swears by it- but i think it really depends on the dog. Her little guy was tolerant of clippers as well- i think it might just be a convenience thing for her.

I got it...I don't know if I like it or not though. I can't use it on my cat because the noise freaks him out. My dog gets irritated by it too, because it takes so darn long to do one nail. I just resorted to the groomer doing it for me with her robo-nail-router.

Yep. Just depends on individual dog's tolorance. My dog is a very tolorant dog but HATES this thing! Everytime I touch her nails with it she snaps at it. I've resorted back to regular clipers although I'd rather use this product because it is less of a risk of clipping the blood vessel in the dog's nail/ My dog just doesn't like it though so it's not gonna work out. Luckily I bought is at the store when it was discounted. Got it for only 5 buvks or something.

I had a Peticure for a while. Within 3 months, the motor gave out and it simply stopped working. When I went in to have my dogs nails trimmed, the woman suggested a dremel tool. She mentioned that they had one in the store that specifically said "for pets", but that wal-mart had them THIRTY dollars cheaper if you look in the tools section. Sure enough, there it was!

I ended up buying a dremel tool (which is the same that they use in both places that I take my dogs for grooming) with ten bands and $19. It works like a charm and is a known name brand in grinding tools.

its a dremel with a case around it. Only it runs slower and doesnt do a good job. I use a dremel on my dog for her nails and i have never once hurt her. its quick and effective.

I use a PediPaws too. Most of the dogs took to it pretty well except for my Minipin Reggie. He hated the sound of it running so I had to "convince" him.

We started out by putting it in his crate and leaving it there for about a week. Then we would turn it on when he was in the room until he got used to the sound.

Once he got over the sound he patiently allowed me to use it on him with a "this sucks" look on his face.

The only drawback I find to these kinds of products is the time it takes to actually do the job. I can clip all of a dog's nails in the time it takes me to grind one down.
