I have a doodle who hates having his paws trimmed, so I've been on a hunt for a little electric trimmer that is quiet, that actually works on fluffy paws, and that maybe he'll hate less than the scissors I typically use. This is the third one I've tried, and it's the winner. It is quiet, easy to hold thanks to its small size, and it does a great job cutting his paw pad fur on the first swipe.
