When I saw the ad on TV for the Peticure (website at peticure.com ), I decided to order one. A year ago I had already ordered the dremel, a popular rotary grinder to shorten my dog’s nails because my dog couldn’t stand traditional nail clippers. The vets didn’t usually do much more than a tiny trim of his nails either because of the way our dog acted. Although the dremmel was a definite improvement over the traditional nail clippers, debris from the nails would fly all over and it was loud and it skipped over nails quite a bit.

There is three peticure models, peticure petite for small dogs and the peticure elite for all dogs and cats, and the peticure power which has twice the power and is smaller than the other peticure models. I ordered the peticure elite for my medium sized german shepherd mixed dog. I was surprised out how well it worked. The Peticure is quiet, cordless, and all peticure models include the safeguard, which helps catch nail debris and secure the nail to the grinder.

One downside is that you will have to replace the Peticure filing bands once in awhile, the peticure elite only comes with 3 bands. The price isn’t too bad, you refill 20 more for $14.99. Each band should last a few sessions each. Peticure also sales a Peticure Safe Guard by itself to attach to the Dremel, which keeps nail debris from flying.
