I have the PediPaws and I don't like it. Maybe it's my dogs nails, but it just doesn't work well for her. She doesn't mind the noise or anything and gives me her paw but it really doesn't grind down my dog's nails. It was a major disappointment. :[

I bought them a few months back, and it was one of the best purchases I have gotten. It works great, and the dogs really are relaxed when I do it. Not like the clippers that they didn't like the feel or some thing and always tried to run, or struggle. No more clink clink on my kitchen floor, either. LOL

Is this product a "one-size-fits-all" type of thing, or do they have different sizes for different size of dogs?

My Caesar is almost 95 lbs and has big black nails.

I have only seen the one size. I just bought one. So far I have only used it on one of my dogs and it did a good job. My Boxer pup is afraid of it. I am taking it slow with him. I got mine from CVS they had them for 20.00 but you know how they give coupons when you make a purchase. I had a 10.00 off coupon so I got it for 10.00. What a bargin. : )

Wow, thanks for sharing. I have been looking around for something to use with our dogs. Its always been a problem to trim their nails.

I have found the PediPaws to be very effective for trimming my Chihuahua's nails. I don't worry about clipping too much off. It also works well for my larger dogs.

It's very quiet and not messy. I have not had my tool get hot or have I had the fur get caught in the wheel.

Overall I think it's a great invention!

The shelter here got a free one from the company that made it so we could try it out then recommend it if we thought it worked. Overall, after I used it one 4 of the dogs, I would rather just stick to my cordless Dremel, as the dremel did a faster and better job on all 4 of the dogs, the dogs where a Pomeranian, Black lab, some weird little mutt, and my Coonhound.

I was very disappointed with it. My mom has small <10 dogs and she liked it so well she talked me into buying one. Jynx is about 40lbs and has thick nails and it didn't work at all. I tried it for two clippings with no satisfaction and it was banished to its box at the bottom of my 'doggie stuff' basket. Anyone who wants to pay for shipping can have it. It might be great for little dogs but I wouldn't recommend it for medium/large breeds.

I have a 60 lb dog with really big feet and big, thick black nails. Someone who didn't like it, gave me the pedi-paws. I love it! seriously, I have clippers but when the nails are so dark it is hard to see where the quick is. now I just grind them down a bit. My dog isn't a fan of either clippers or the pedipaws, but atleast with the pedipaws, I don't have to worry about any accidents. The first time I used it, his nails were a bit long so I trimmed them first and smoothed them out after, now I have the hang of it and once a week I grind just a bit off. It's not as easy as the commercials make it seem, but it is pretty easy.
