used for trimming dog nails?

I use it on my own nails so, I don't see why not. As always with dogs nails, be careful not to cut too deep but, otherwise, I see no problem. I bought them as an experiment on my own nails. Prolonged periods in wet weather without the liberty of letting feet & boots dry out caused me problems and regular trimmers did not work but these worked fine. Hope this helps.

Oh no, this blade is super sharp and I would never use these trimmers on a dog's nails. You could do serious damage because they are not arched to fit a dog claw. P.S I am a nail tech and I use a dremmel file on low while holding each claw very firm to prevent vibration. Make sure the dremmel file is spinning upward/outward and start with a little off every week. I have my boyfriend hold our beagles while we do this. There is also a "pedi paw" you can get and that works ok but I prefer the dremmel tool because it is electric and spins faster but it does get hot! Use cardboard file cylinder bits found at the beauty supply or online. Oh no, this blade is super sharp and I would never use these trimmers on a dog's nails.

No, these scissors will not work for that purpose. It would be best for you to untangle the hair first. I find the best way is to use my fingers to pull the matting apart, making sure not to pull on the skin. When the hair is almost untangled I go in gently with a fine metal comb, separating the rest of the matt. This does not alarm the pet in any way.

I'm a firm believer in using "the right tool for the job" whenever possible. That being said, I don't see why you couldn't use it for toenails. The clippers do seem sturdy enough to work on the tougher toenails. However, they are significantly smaller than specialized toenail clippers, and may not cut properly. I would suggest getting the Seki Edge toenail clippers as well, then you'll have "the right tool" for either job.

I don't know how thick the nails are but I have two dogs and normal clippers won't cut their nails or if it did it splintered the end. These have worked great so far

I believe Millers Forge makes a number of nail clippers with colored handles. Maybe your groomer has one of the other types. I've tried some of the others and didn't like them. I use my clippers on dogs 8 - 50 lbs.

Yes, just give you dog some Peanut butter on a spoon it occupies them while you are trimming their nails but if they get fussy let it go and come back at a later date. You must trim a very small amount 1/16" or 1/8" at a time to Be Sure and Do Not Cut into the Quick. If you do cut into the Quick you need something like Kwik Stop Powder to stop the bleeding, also your dog will not like you for a little while. You can find the Quick by looking at the underside of the dogs nail to see where the nail meets flesh. It would be like cutting the tip of your finger so please be careful. As for the trimmers there are two sizes small and large I have both and they are great. Enjoy CWN

Yes! These nail clippers are great for any size dog really. There is a safe guard in the back of blade to ensure you only cut so much at a time. I have a Westie and have been using them since he was 6 months old. They work perfect for him :) These are a must for any pet owner! They were recommended by my vet! Hope this was helpful.

Yes, you need to be careful when cutting them. If you look at the back of the nail, you'll see a soft pink or black (depending of your dog's nail color) tissue/skin (called quick) that you shouldn't cut because your dog will bleed. Just be careful and cut little by little until you are close to the quick but not too close.

Thanks Patricia. I was going to use this for trimming my dogs hard as rock nails. He is very squeamish when it comes to getting his nails clipped, thought this might work a little better. My Brittany just sits there and soaks up the attention but my GSP can't stand to have anyone touch his nails, any thoughts? Grant

We use the standard Dremel style sanding drum to trim dogs' nails- haven't tried it on humans.

No. The product is pretty darn tough and so far have had no problems with dog nails.

Yes the sanding drums can be used. Keep the speed to less than 15,000 RPM. Instruction for use cam be found on the Demel web site. Look for "Pet Nail Grooming Using a Dremel Rotary Tool" instruction. The instructions are in the download area.

Yes. It works really well to cut fingernails. It's a straight blade and I feel like I have more control over it. I have very large hands for a woman and therefore my fingernails are big and wide. A regular fingernail trimmer will not work on my nails. This was a great purchase for me.

I have two black German Shepherd dogs with thick black nails and the safari professional pet nail trimmer cuts through all of their nails without any problems. This is a very strong and very sharp nail trimmer.

Sorry, I gave this as a "stocking stuffer" to my daughter who trims her dogs' nails. No idea. Isn't there manufacturer's contact info on the label? If not, you could do a computer search for them and get the customer services number or contact info.
