Nail Trims Without
the Fight.
A calmer, safer way to keep their nails short — without the stress, sharp blades or sudden snip of traditional clippers.
Nail Trimming Shouldn't Be This Hard.
For many pet owners, nail day isn't just a grooming task — it's a stressful, frustrating experience that can leave both you and your pet upset.
Your Pet Gets Scared
The sight, sound or sensation of clippers can make dogs anxious, causing them to pull away, squirm or even growl.
Risk of Cutting the Quick
It's easy to cut too far, especially with dark nails where the quick isn't visible. This can cause pain, bleeding and make nail trims even more traumatic in the future.
Nails Can Split or Break
Clippers can leave sharp edges or cause nails to split, which is painful and can lead to infection if the nail bed is exposed to bacteria and debris.
It Damages Their Trust
A bad trimming experience can make your pet fear your hands, making future grooming more difficult and straining the bond you've worked so hard to build.
So You Put It Off
Because it's stressful for both of you, it's easy to delay. But when nails get too long, they can change the way your pet walks and lead to discomfort and joint issues over time.

A Different Way to Do Nail Day.
Safer, easier and more comfortable for you and your pet.
How to Introduce It.
Give them time. One nail today is better than ten nails and another bad experience.
Meet it
Let them sniff the grinder while it's switched off. Reward calm curiosity.
Hear it
Switch it on from a distance. Let them get used to the sound. Treat them.
Feel it
Let them experience the vibration away from the nails first.
Try one nail
Use a low speed and short 1–2 second touches. Stop before they're overwhelmed.
Pet Owners Are Loving Hernaux
★★★★★ 4.8/5 (732 reviews)
“My dog normally runs as soon as the clippers come out. I introduced this on the lowest setting and he barely reacted. Nail trims are so much easier now.”
“I was always nervous about cutting too far, especially with his dark nails. Being able to take a little off at a time gives me so much more confidence.”
“I honestly expected it to be a bit gimmicky, but I was surprised by how well it works. His nails came out smooth and it was much easier than using clippers.”
Frequently Asked Questions
My dog hates having their nails done. Will they tolerate this?
Hernaux was designed with nervous dogs in mind. Its low-noise, low-vibration motor makes the experience much less intimidating than many owners expect. Start on the lowest speed and let your dog get used to it gradually — there’s no need to rush.
Is it powerful enough for thick nails and large dogs?
Yes. Hernaux has 5 adjustable speeds up to 10,000 RPM, so you can increase the power for thicker nails or use a gentler setting for smaller dogs. Its different grinding ports also help accommodate different nail sizes.
I’m scared of hitting the quick. Is Hernaux easier to control?
That’s exactly where gradual grinding helps. Instead of committing to one big cut, Hernaux lets you remove a little nail at a time and check your progress as you go. The built-in LED also gives you a clearer view while you work.
Is it actually silent?
No motorised grinder is completely silent — and we’d rather be transparent about that. Hernaux is engineered for low-noise, low-vibration operation, helping make nail time less startling for noise-sensitive pets.
My dog has black nails. Can I still use it?
Absolutely. Dark nails can make the quick harder to judge, which is why taking off small amounts at a time can be especially useful. Hernaux also illuminates the nail with its built-in LED, giving you better visibility and more control.
Will it leave my dog’s nails sharp?
Quite the opposite. Because Hernaux files rather than snips, you can gradually round and smooth the nail as you shorten it — helping avoid the sharp edges that can sometimes remain after clipping.
Does grinding hurt my dog?
When used correctly, Hernaux gradually files the nail rather than cutting through it with a blade. Use short, controlled touches and check the nail regularly. This also helps prevent excess heat building up during grinding.
What if my dog is nervous the first time?
That’s completely normal. Let them see and sniff Hernaux while it’s switched off, then turn it on nearby without touching their paws. Once they’re comfortable, start on the lowest setting and try one nail at a time. A few short, positive sessions can be better than forcing one long trim.
