How loud would you say this is? I'm looking at it for grinding dog nails.

I've been using dremel for 40 yrs on my dogs nails. I got so disgusted with the noise and constant changeing of batteries and chargers, I finally tried this one. OMG what a difference, quiet, faster, smoother much better job all the way around!

It is not esp. loud. While we have not used it on our dog we saw no reason it wouldn't do the job.

I use this weekly for grooming dogs nails. You can adjust the power which does effect the noise level.

I use it for my dogs' nails, it's great, far better than a Mity Mite. Not sure "how loud" it is, but being battery powered, it doesn't freak them out.

It is not noticeably loud in my opinion. I also use it for dog's nails as well as for my cockatoo parrot's nails. It does a great job!

It's not loud on the lower settings. I use it for dog toenails. Thats what I bought it for. Its a great tool. Great battery life.

Well... like any Dremel-type rotary tool? They are high speed tools - so - there is a certain whine that is inherent. No louder than any other rotary tool I've used.

Quiet as these tools go. It is quieter than the 110 volt dremel tool I use. Generally the noise from the material I work with makes the most noise when the bit is grinding on it.

Depends where you mount it, sheet metal is very loud. But where I mounted it is out of ear shoot

Hard to say, it is pretty loud but also pretty small. If I wanted it for that I would go bigger.

I have no idea. Is the sound volume really that critical? I've used the Oster on both my dogs a 6 month old puppy and a 10+ y/o dog, neither is bothered by it and the grinder works very well on both. I usually try to do their nails every two weeks.

It is fairly noisy, but it is on par with other coffee grinders, in my experience.

I believe it is loud enough. I use one in my crawl space and expect to hear it. In a closed space like that, it might take a little while to hear it and wonder what that sound is. But it's a piercing sound.

I would think it would be to loud for that. I would say it's about like a motor on a garage door opener.

It is not very loud at all. It is equivalent to a can of air used for keyboards. It is effective for correcting bad behavior. It does emit a sound that can only dogs hear along with the air. I love mine.

Not very loud. Much quieter than the blade grinder I had previously. I would recommend this grinder. Sturdy and does a great job of grinding. Adjustable from chunky to powder. I have used this for about two years and am very pleased with it. Would buy again.

It is not loud. It;s very quiet. You can hear it while using it but it would to disturb others in an office.

It is noisy, but it will suck the nail dust. It has a dial control to make suction stronger.

I don't find it to be any louder than my shop vac. My dog is even ok with it when used for drying.

I think so its pretty loud. It's a clear full sound that carries over other noise. I use it in wood shop and it does great. I'm very happy with it. I'd buy again

Depends on how good the dog's hearing is. Haven't used it for that application, but the horn is as loud as you sometimes hear at sporting events.

It's not as loud as something like a vitamix, but it's not quiet either. You could probably put a towel over the grinder and muffle the sound.

Not sure. It's pretty loud. I only use it when the dog is barking or jumping so I'm right beside them. I imagine a dog could hear it in an adjoining room..

I do not know what you consider loud but I think it is reasonable considering it is grinding paper into confetti. It is not nearly as loud as a blender.
