[NAGDU] Clipping dogs nails

[Jean Menzies]

For years I used the PetiCure Elite pet nail grinder. Sadly, though, it just 
gave up the ghost. I have just purchased a new corded nail grinder, but 
haven't tried it yet. The PetiCure is no longer being manufactured. I think 
any of the corded nail grinders would be fine. The one I just bought is from 
Sunbeam.

Personally, I never liked the hand clippers, but then maybe I just never had 
a good pair. lol.

I found the battery powered nail grinders were just too weak for labrador 
nails. They would be strong enough for cats and smaller dogs.

Thanks for the replies everyone.  I think I will look for a good pair of 
clippers since that sounds like it will be the easiest for me to work with.

Hi Jordan,
I grind my dog’s nails.  i use the dremmil tool for the task.  there are 
some grinders that are easier to use but, this one is pretty powerful and i 
get the job done quicker.
i tend to have to grind about every 2 weeks.
