I use my PediPaw after I clip my dogs nail, it smoothes the nails and allows you to get the nails shorter without cutting to the quick of the nail. I wouldn't recommend it for cutting the nails, it takes too long and the smell is awful.

I bought this for my dog simply because I didn't really know how to clip his nails. I think it was a great idea, but I don't really think it is worth the money. I would say it is worth it if you use it often (don't try to use it on long nails, it will take FOREVER),

It works ok, but it's just too big and bulky. Also, the noise frightens my dog.

The Pedipaws is not for the ocassional groomer. It does work well for filing the edges of clipped nails to keep the sharp edges off. It goes through batteries relativly quickly. It is very loud and my little girl pup does not like it, but my big guy will just lay there likeit is his day at the spa. They are very differnt dogs, so with most things, it is really up to the dog. If you are someone who would be willing to use a Dremel tool on your furry friend, then this is a safe alternative to that, but not as powerful.

Well it's pretty good... it works well on my Miniature Schnauzer but he worries but then calms down.. at first he squirms A LOT but then he calms down.

This product will NOT trim a dog's nails as a clipper would. This is great for keeping a dog's nails short after you clip them. The "safety" plastic piece can come off and will make filing the nails easier. Very loud noise. Keep treats close by when using this product.

Works well for my small dog (who is 20 pounds), not so well for my other dog who is 66 pounds and still growing.

My dog was afraid of it. I tried and tried to use it effectively but couldn't do it. I ended up just taking her to the pet groomer and having them take care of it. I am giving it a 3 rating because it could just be my dog, and not the item. it's a great idea though.

my dog hates it but she dosnt hesitate to much she gets used to it after a while but my cat on the other hand goes crazy i always end up cutting her nails with fingernail clippers .

The product works, but it is really hard to get my dog to sit still and let me use it. The sound, the movement, and the feeling of it scare her.

I use this on both of my dogs nails after I cut and trim them first. The file tends to bog down if you press to hard and you have to move it around due to the file spinning in one direction. It does work, but i think it is better for small dogs nails.

I have been using this product on my dogs for about five years now. I have no trouble out of my dogs when it comes to trimming their claws. Treats and praise is good to us if your furbaby is feeling unsure about having their claws trimmed. It does make a running noise and it vibrates. But it isn't bad. All grinders and sanders do make noises and vibrates. The only downside of this product is the power. It takes a long time to trim my German Shepherd and Pitbull claws. The battery operated motor is to small to take on medium to large breed claws. It works great on my Miniature Dachshunds and my two English Bulldogs.

Does work, but not quick enough. Still ended up cutting my dog's nails. Have not tried it on my cat, not sure she would like it.

It's great for shaping! I use this after I cut my great danes claws with clippers. I use it to shape the nail into a rounded shape so it no longer has the sharp edges after cutting them. However i did give it only 3 stars because it would take forever to actually cut down the claw before the pet desides, Ok mom I'm done lol.

Worked okay, obviously my cat didn't like it but she didn't like the clippers either so. nice for shaping the nail.
