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

We've tested dozens of clippers and grinders, sending out popular and highly-rated models to volunteer testers, who spent months clipping their dog's nails with these specialized tools. This beginner’s guide to well-trimmed pet’s nails covers all the basics, from how to prepare Dremel’s electric pet nail grinder to paw handling and what angle to work at. But it may sound quieter or noisier depending on how thick your dog’s nails are and the speed setting used.

I am THRILLED that your little guy doesn’t mind the Dremel — isn’t it amazing how different it is compared to nail clipping? In testing, we found that the first two speeds, at 8,000 rpm and 14,000 rpm, respectively, offered enough power to grind most dogs’ nails. Even our professional groomer couldn’t figure out how to remove the plastic paw cap and clasp, which has interlocking nubs that you need to twist and turn in a mazelike manner to unlock. Because you will be using this tool once or twice a week for the rest of your dog’s life, it is critical for both you and your dog that there is no fear or force involved. The safety guard on the top of the tool covers all rotating parts, making the cutting experience just as comfortable for you.The pet nail grooming sanding discs have a grit of 60, making them the perfect accessory for gradually sanding away the nail to prevent bleeding. Ideal nail Dremeling happens between 10,000-15,000 RPM, making this model’s speed of 14,000 on the faster end of that spectrum. Before you start your pet pedicure, introduce the dog to the electric pet nail grinder and the task at hand.

Whether it’s finding great products or discovering helpful advice, we’ll help you get it right (the first time).

After Dremeling your dog’s nails, finish them by rubbing olive or coconut oil over the nails to seal them and prevent flaking/cracking. Emma dedicates her coaching roster to types of dogs that are underserved in the dog behavior and training world. The 60 is pretty coarse so it will do the work — the 120 will safely sand them down the rest of the way and smooth the nails nicely.

Comfort: Grinding takes longer than cutting, so it’s important for the tool to be comfortable in your hand and comfortable for your dog. Regardless of the model used, you can’t grind a dog’s nails the same way they’d use it to sharpen knives or cut drywall. Note that Dremel’s user manual recommends the PawControl’s lowest setting as the maximum pet-grooming speed to prevent heat buildup. By experimenting a little, you’ll discover soon enough which position works best for you and your pooch.

The collet on ours arrived locked shut with a sanding disk in place and a plastic clasp and paw guide over it, which prevented the insertion of a sanding band and bit. Our testing team rated the Dremel PawControl highly for dog owners who trim their pups' nails at least once a month. The rechargeable battery makes the PawControl heavier than our also-great pick, the Oster Gentle Paws Nail Grinder, and significantly heavier than any of the other models we tested.Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item.
