    Re: Dog\'s Nails & Clipping

    Glad you had a good experience! Is your Dremel corded or battery?

    Might be an excuse to buy another tool. /forums/images/icons/cool.gif

    Re: Dog\'s Nails & Clipping

    Thanks Fred. I read and bookmarked the page for future use.

    Perhaps this weekend I'll see how she reacts to the noise. My BIL has a battery unit and that would be more convenient to use.

    Re: Dog\'s Nails & Clipping

    Well, I out weigh the dog by a serious margin, so maybe I could just pin her down and let my wife do the trimming. /forums/images/icons/smile.gif

    Not serious about that. I do think the whineing...

    Re: Dog\'s Nails & Clipping

    I wonder if the Dremel MotoTool with a sanding band would work better than a clipper. I've seen them in the pet supply catalogs being sold for that purpose. They can be quite noisey though, and at a...

    Re: Dog\'s Nails & Clipping

    Thanks for the additional information. I suspect the corn starch would have worked except for the wet ground.

    I've stocked up on the KwikStop pads and am now prepared for future trimmings....

    Re: Dog\'s Nails & Clipping

    Well, I use an electric shaver, so no styptic pencils. I do remember my Dad having those on hand though.

    After I posted, I checked the website for PetSmart and found a product called KwikStop. It apparently is available in different forms and package sizes. Might stop by tonight so I have some on hand....

    Dog\'s Nails & Clipping

    OK, I'll admit that I don't keep my mostly indoor dog's nails trimmed back enough, or often enough. /forums/images/icons/frown.gif They usually don't get trimmed until we notice her slipping on the...
