Josh Bloome from Tallahassee, Florida got his dog Hunter, a Retriever mix when he was an 8-week puppy. Many who know Josh and Hunter say it was an instant bond and the two have been inseparable ever since.
Hunter has brought nothing but joy into Josh's life. But there was one exception that was driving Josh crazy - nail trimming. Yet, like many dog owners, Josh felt like there was no way out and he had to just suffer through it.
Today, Hunter is almost 5 years old and he and Josh have never been happier. This is thanks to the LuckyTail Nail Grinder, which has made nail trimming a breeze for 300,000+ dog owners worldwide.
"When I see that Hunter's nails are too long, I get myself a handful of treats, call Hunter over, and start grinding away. It only takes a few minutes and Hunter doesn't even seem to mind - he lays there and enjoys the massage!"
In around 2018, there was a massive increase in dog nail grinders. Back then, dog owners were becoming dissatisfied with traditional trimmers that were difficult to use and caused a lot of pain for the dog.
The LuckyTail Nail Grinder rushed into the market in 2020, offering a much easier and safer alternative. It ground the nails gradually without the risk of cutting into the quick. Its adjustable two-speed motor and changeable grinding heads made it fully customizable for each dog.
"For years, dog owners thought that nail trimming was a necessary evil. It was painful and uncomfortable but people had this sense that you just have to get it over with!" says Rich Davies, professional dog trainer & head of innovation at LuckyTail.
"The LuckyTail Nail Grinder has completely changed that. We've made it so that people can actually enjoy grooming their dog's nails," he says.
A veterinarian, Dr. Robert Peterson, had a very similar experience. He noted that people were experimenting with tools like the Dremel and electric nail files before LuckyTail. But they were either too harsh or too ineffective.
According to Dr. Peterson, nail trimming was as dreadful for dogs as much as it was for their owners. "People would come to me with dogs who were terrified of someone just touching their paws," he says. "Some dogs would even have bleeding, nicked paws from previous experiences."
Dr. Peterson began thinking about the ultimate tool that would help ease their pain. "I'd been using a nail grinder for decades, but it was a hefty piece of technology that needed a power outlet to run," he says. "I thought there must be a way to create a small, cordless version that could be used anywhere."
Dr. Peterson looked into grinders available on the market but could not find one that suited dogs. "Most of the portable grinders were marketed for people to use on their own nails, not on dogs' nails," he explains.
Another reason he didn't see these trimmers as an alternative was insufficient power. "They were all very small and lightweight. Now that is great for people, but not for larger and thicker nails," says the veterinarian.
For a while, Dr. Peterson didn't see any other viable solution other than creating his own dog nail grinder. But that was a lofty goal for someone who had no experience in tool and product design. So he shelved the idea and turned his attention to his daily practice.
Peterson heard about the LuckyTail Nail Grinder on the news in 2020. "At the time, I had completely forgotten about my idea for a dog nail grinder," he says. "But back then it just exploded onto the scene. It was on every reputable dog care blog and every dog enthusiast was talking about it!"
Dr. Peterson admits he was immediately taken by the grinder's ease of use. "A lot of my clients are not particularly technical people. Yet, they could pick it up and use it on their dogs almost immediately!" Also, he and Davies were impressed by how safe the grinder was.
"It had a built-in protective cover keeping the grinding head away from your dog's skin. Also, what's great about it is that it had a very low noise level," says Davies. "So if your dog was timid or anxious around noises, this was the best option for you."
The LuckyTail team focused on studying dog behavior to make the grinder as user-friendly as possible. They conducted research on dog nails, how they grow, and how to safely grind them down. "We also consulted with vets and groomers to get their feedback on the product," says Davies.
LuckyTail began as a small-scale online pet store serving a few hundred customers a month. But it really took off once it introduced the LuckyTail Nail Grinder. Now, it’s one of the leading dog nail trimmer companies with over 300,000 happy customers worldwide!
As of today, the LuckyTail Nail Grinder has received tens of thousands of 5-star reviews on Amazon, Google, Facebook, and more. "It's been a real lifesaver for my pup Gizmo!" says Casey N. from New Jersey. "I really can't believe how well it works - it's so quiet and gentle, but still gets the job done quickly!"
"This is the best dog nail grinder on the market! I have a German shepherd and a Rottweiler, so their nails are pretty tough. But this grinder has no problem handling them. It's quiet, easy to use, and my dogs don't seem to mind it at all," says Kate from Texas.
And there are many more reviews like that.
"The response from dog owners all over the world completely blew us away. It's been amazing to see how this little device changed the lives of so many people and their dogs," said Davies.
After being asked what makes him excited about the LuckyTail Nail Grinder he says: "There are a few things. One, it's really easy to use. Two, it's really quiet and gentle making the process much less stressful for both the dog and the owner."
"As a dog trainer, I've dealt with hundreds of anxious and disobedient dogs. Their owners would bring them to me asking for help, but I could never seem to get through to them. After using the LuckyTail Nail Grinder for a while, I've seen a dramatic change in their behavior. The dogs are much more relaxed and obedient, and their owners are finally able to enjoy their company," said Davies.
Dr. Robert Peterson Recommends: LuckyTail Nail Grinder
Dr. Peterson - who has worked as a veterinarian for over 30 years now- has had a very similar experience.
"I've seen many dogs who have trauma from having their nails clipped with conventional clippers. Their owners would often have to put their pets through great lengths. They would bribe, intimidate, and even sedate their dogs to get the job done. This little device has really been a lifesaver for so many of them," says Dr. Peterson.
As of today, the LuckyTail Nail Grinder has become an integral part of Peterson's practice. "I truly believe that this is the future of nail care for dogs. I use it on my own dogs and recommend it to every one of my clients. I even ditched my old professional nail grinder that I had for years."
Rich from California, says that before getting LuckyTail, she and her dog Baxter had a very rough time with nail trimming. "Baxter used to be very resistant to having his nails done. He would get so worked up that it would take forever and we would both end up tired and frustrated.
With LuckyTail, Rich says, "It's so easy to keep Baxter's nails trimmed and he doesn't seem to mind it at all. And it only takes a few minutes! It doesn't compare to all the fancy nail clippers and pricey nail grooming sessions at the vet."
Rich ordered the LuckyTail Nail Grinder after hearing about it on the news. "I'm glad I did," she says. Aside from how fast and efficient it is, she also likes how safe the grinder is. "When you're grinding, you're in full control. You can pause or pause and start grinding again, making sure that your pet feels safe and comfortable."
"I feel like LuckyTail has been a total lifesaver for us," Rich concludes. "We definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to make their and their dog's life a lot easier!"
In light of these incredible results, it's important to note that a nail grinder won't cure your dog if it's suffering from an extreme anxiety disorder. If this is the case for your dog then it's likely they need to see a vet.
That said, if you're looking to turn the highly stressful and anxiety-inducing nail clipping sessions into something you and your dog can look forward to, this nail grinder is an absolute MUST.
