BC Crazy Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I have just started using a Dremel on my guys. They are great & I can do a far smoother & closer to the quik job. Dogs don't seem to mind it at all either. Would love a cordless one but OH has the corded version so I cant really justify buying another one. Highly recommend them though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mim Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 That's the dremel I have and it's great. I totally recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I am just reading this now after buying an Andis nail grinder today lol. The grinder was nearly $100 but at least I had a discount voucher to bring it back to $84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSoSwift Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I have an ozito multi tool grinder thingy. Love doing nails this way. That dremel looks great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pjrt Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I use a stylus dremel in the salon, with the stone attachment. I just about always cut first and just buff off sharp edges with the dremel. I rarely use it to grind down the nail. However at home you'd be able to use it weekly whereas most of the dogs I see are 4 to 12 weekly or more.

helen Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 thanks Gruflife, I always wondered whether to use stone or sandpaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercedes Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Also available at Masters ATM and if you use the disc code PETROL10 (until 9th Nov I think) at online checkout you get 10% off, so total of $87.30 and you can click and collect.

dancinbcs Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 I recently splurged and bought the Dremel Stylus cordless one and it is great. The only thing I can get near the nails on my older dog with and much easier on my hands and shoulders than the old generic multi tool I had.

suziwong66 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 i bought a Dremel last year and then did three to four solid months of Dremel training with norty brown dawg...he still hates the darn thing *sigh* at least i use it for other projects.

Mim Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 One of my dogs hated having her nails clipped and adjusted to the dremel really well and now is very good if I do clip her nails. Another of mine was totally fine with having his nails done but after introducing the dremel he now doesn't like either (not a big deal, he just squirms). Interesting how every dog reacts differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSoSwift Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Mine line up and fight to be first. Not so much because they love having their nails done but for the treat afterwards :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trisven13 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I have some who will happily allow me to do it with the Dremel but others who have a meltdown and have to be clipped. I prefer the result with the Dremel so will try to train babies to get used to it in future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainy Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 thanks Gruflife, I always wondered whether to use stone or sandpaper I use the sand paper drum over the stone it seems to be quicker on my dogs nails, try both and see which works best for you.

benshiva Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 That's exactly the same model as mine. i LOVE it!!! Much easier to do nails with the dremel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pjrt Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 thanks Gruflife, I always wondered whether to use stone or sandpaper I use the sand paper drum over the stone it seems to be quicker on my dogs nails, try both and see which works best for you. Yeah the sand paper works well but in a commercial setting doing several a day of all different temperaments and behaviours, and often with overgrown nails, it's usually best to cut then buff the edges. The stone does this great and last much better than the paper would. If you are just doing a couple of well maintained dogs at home the paper would be fine. But like rainy says, experiment what works best for you and your dogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airedaler Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Just bought one from Masters @ $87.30 with the promo code Mercedes posted (thank you Mercedes) I wanted to look at the product and get the feel of it before I bought so went to Masters and did that. It seems very light and comfortable. Looking forward to trying it out. My new puppy arrives on Saturday so she might be introduced to the Dremel before too long.

Airedaler Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Hehe, you're welcome! Love a bargain. Can't wait to see puppy pics Airedaler! Are you getting another Airedale? Yes another Airedale. It is the first puppy I've had in 9 years and the first 8 week old I've had that I've not bred for over 20 years. Could be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
