People say that, but when confronted with it can generally come up with very few actual, eyewitness accounts of injury due to dewclaws. And many, many more dogs have dew claws than not--outside the show world they just aren't taken off. agreed. both of my dogs have front dew claws, they both use their front feet for play (pit bulls play style is very similar to boxers), and they're both fine. they've never had their dew claws stuck in anything or injured in any way. neither one has any evidence of ever having a rear dew claw, though. -kelly |

They do come up sometimes with dirt & bits of grass on them, so he must use them somehow. Shelly & The Boys |

We allow people to mutilate themselves with cosmetic surgery. Dogs however
do not have a choice. People should not be able to choose for them just to satisfy their own vanity. If a dog's tail gets injured then have it docked for veterinary reasons otherwise leave it alone. Common sense! |

Leave the tail and ears alone. Natural is better. =Pete |
