Great tool for nail grinding

We use these in our grooming salon and they are really great.
They are light weight so don't kill your hands, but powerful enough to get the job done.

I will say, their battery life is a *little* on the weak side, but not bad enough for me to buy a different model for my own home use. You can do several small dogs with one charge, but if you're having to remove a fair amount of length from the toenails of a normal sized dog it does drain kind of quickly. In these cases, it's better to trim some of the excess nail off before grinding. If you are planning on multiple large dogs, or a bigger project, I would recommend picking up a spare battery.

Despite popular belief, it IS possible to quick a dog with these (and any other tool that shortens the nails, including pedipaws...), and the heat does NOT cauterize it, so if you aren't good with figuring out where the quick ends, be sure to keep some quik stop handy.

Pretty good

I like this tool much better than the tradition nail clippers for my dogs. There are certain annoyances including nail dust flying everywhere, the smell of nail dust, overheating, and lack of battery power overtime. Otherwise, very easy to use.

Dremel 750-02 Minimite 13,000 RPM 2 Speed 4.8-Volt Cordless Rotary Tool

Purchased primarily to file dog's claws e.g. to shorten them so they don't become too long. Dog is long-haired and despite my efforts to trim hair in the vicinity of his paws, it seems as if I'd have to trim his legs an inch or more to avoid the hair becoming entangled in the rotating device. Neither he nor I enjoy that! Am hesitant about continuing to use it. About ready to revert back to the hand-operated claw trimer formerly used.
