Dremel 7300-PT 4.8-Volt Pet Grooming Kit

Good product makes for a happy owner and a happy dog
I purchased the short-lived previous version of this product, Dremel 765-01 Pet Nail Grooming Kit, and liked it so much that I bought the Dremel 7300-PT for friends. There are two differences between the 765 and the 7300- the casing of the 73000 is gray, and Amazon charges $29, rather than $32.

The newest version of Dremel's Pet Nail sander is well worth the money. It has changed what was previously a tortuous experience into something quick and easy.

I did some research before buying the 765 and 7300, and ended up choosing these over other products for several reasons.
PediPaws Pet Nail Trimmer- Several friends had bad experiences with it, generally finding it to be of poor quality.

Dremel 7700-02 MultiPro 7.2-Volt 20,000 RPM Two-Speed Rotary Tool with 50 Accessories- Although this is more powerful, it is also more expensive, heavier, larger, and louder, which would make it...
There's a BETTER Dremel out there for this!!

I have to let everyone know that as a professional groomer & a dog trainer, I can tell you that these Dremel "Pet Grooming Kits" don't have the power to do a good, quick (the key word being QUICK!) job on sanding pet nails. Like Pedi-Paws & other products like them that are packaged & geared towards pet owners, this is actually a little better than Pedi-Paws, which bogs down, because the motor is not strong enough to really work well. In my opinion, this product isn't either. I actually bought a regular Dremel that is sold for industrial purposes. The model I bought was the "Dremel 7700-02 MultiPro 7.2-Volt 20,000 RPM Two-Speed Rotary Tool with 50 Accessories", which works like a dream! It's powerful enough to do the job quickly without putting the dog thru the torture of holding them there while these inferior (in my opinion) products...
Easy on the DOG!
I purchased this Dremel 7300-PT for the sole purpose of trimming the nails on my very skittish Golden Retriever. She HATES to have her nails done. As soon as it arrived, I plugged in into the AC outlet to get a full charge. Although I did not use it for another week or more, when I did, it still retained a full charge. I was able to use it for nearly a half hour to trim all of our gal, Molly's, nails, using the high speed setting with no loss of power. I like the fact that this Dremel is cordless which means no cord to get tangled up in her paws! The unit is not particularly loud (even on high speed), allowing me to trim Molly's nails with minimal nervousness on her part.

I defintely recommend this particular Dremel for use on your pet's nails. Plus, it can also be used for myriad other tasks around the house, too, where a Dremel would come in handy!
