Supports the Battery Industry I am all for using a dremel tool for my dogs nails...of course it is best to start them out when they are young....BUT This one is NO GOOD. I can't even finish the nails on one dog before the batteries die. I am going to toss it and get a different one. Good Tool I have 2 Westies and like this product very much. My dogs much prefer this method to clipping their nails. I had the more expensive dremel, with the rechargable battery, but I found that one did not hold a charge very long. I had to recharge it before every use and after about 2 years, the battery quit holding a charge (I do not store my rechargable tools on the charger). On top of that battery was not available to purchase seperately, so I would have had to buy a whole new tool. I wasn't going to spent that much money again. I do agree that this Pet Dremel does eat batteries, finding the last set pretty dead when I went to use it again, but taking the batteries out between uses solves this problem. Even using the 15 minute rechargable AA batteries is a good option. They charge much faster than my old dremel battery did. Eats Batteries The batteries die while being stored within the device, to lengthen battery life. Remove when not being used!! Alot ezier than using clipper. I've got Shiba Inu's, and they've got a mind of their own. They do not like their nails cut at all. This makes it alot easier to cut their nails..the key is to work fast and not dilly-dally when working their nails. If you can have 1 person holding a flashlight and stabilizing the dog while you work each paw, you will get the hang of it fast. Do HEED the warnings to not spend too much time on a given nail as you will burn them. Just keep moving from nail to nail and go back to the first one, so that there is time to cool down. The battery life is pretty horid, but make sure you disengage the battery pack each time you are done, as it seems to continually drain when you leave it attached even though its off.
