It takes about 2 minutes to do all ten nails, much of that time just isolating each toenail and repositioning him, etc. If the file comes off the nail, you file the little pad below the toenail so I am very cautious to be sure I put my thumb in place over each pad so I can't accidentally hurt a pad. It doesn't cause it to bleed or split or anything but you can see a roughened spot. Anyway, it is just the ticket for Tibbe and me and so much less scary than the nail clipper!
I bought the pet dremel and a bit stronger model (having heard not great things about the pet dremel's strength). The pet version came missing all of the attachments so I was left to try the rechargeable. Sugar is 3.4 pounds.

I'm glad I did!!! It was quiet and gentle (on low) and cheaper than the pet Dremel!! Pedipaws was a PITA for me.......
