Groomax Deluxe Nail Clipper for Dogs
By Karen onI hate clipping my dogs' nails, but it is something that has to be done.When I read the reviews on SR for Pedi-Paws and similar items, I realized that this apparatus would probably not work with my dogs.I have one dachshund that is so timid I could never use an item like that on him.
So I decided to try your good old-fashioned nail clippers.I purchased the small Deluxe Nail Clipper by Groomax at Petsmart and just trimmed my dogs' nails with it.I never take off too much nail because I'm always afraid of hurting them.OK, so I'm a wimp when it comes to this.The Groomax Nail Clipper in size small is a nice sturdy pair of clippers.It has a nail guard which helps you to not overcut, it also has a safety clasp that will lock the clippers when not in use.The small is great for small to medium sized dogs.The clippers I purchased are shown in the middle lefthand side of the photo.
I was impressed with these clippers.They did a nice job, and they are not cheaply made.Of course, when you use nail clippers, you always end up with a slightly ragged tip, but a nail file will smooth that right out.
I think these clippers are very nice, and I'm glad I purchased them.

We've actually gotten our Jack Russel use to the Pedi-Paws - now she doesn't seem to mind it at all - certainly isn't as quick as TV leads you to believe but for those weekly light trim ups - I think we've gotten the hang of it - I've never gotten use to the clippers, like you I'm afraid I'll hurt her but glad these have worked out well for you & your pet. Thanks for the info.
