I would leave the dew claws alone. I once had an adult dog have them removed.
He was in so much pain and wouldn't even walk for quite awhile after the

be a regular occurrence but a possibility. It will give me something to

Thanks, glad all of you enjoyed Cesar's photo. Remember him on Monday, he
is due to be nuetered and the vet is also going to "evaluate" the need to
remove his dew claws.

Yes, yahoo is having probs right now. Last week they sent out an email to group
owners/mods that there was an email posting delay but that the problem was

Personally, I do not remove dew claws. There are cases where dew claws have
been caught on something and torn and the pain from that can be really bad, but
in most chis I have seen, it is rare that it happens, and to me the risk is
small enough that it does not justify the removal. Of course, t
I know what you mean about floppy dew claws. I have one chi that is 9 months
old that has the floppiest dew claws I have ever seen. She is the first one I
have ever even considered having removed. I haven't done so, but I do keep a
close eye on her/

Thanks, Mel. As I mentioned in a previous post, Cesar goes in Monday to be
neutered, so, I thought I would ask about having his dew claws removed. For
some reason Cesar's dew claws were never removed and he has one on each of
his front and hind legs. Recently, I noticed that they sometime

Our almost-three year old Chihuahua (male) STILL has accidents

comfortable going potty on anything soft. We use a crate (it's his
bedroom, not for punishment) so we
