Dew Claws ???

My pup has dew claws on back feet, I know they serve no purpose, and look odd, anyone ever had an older dog with them and do they cause a lot of trouble later on getting snag on things. Cheapest vet I've found so far wants 200 to remove them, thanks

Band them off. Go to section at Wal-Mart or your local Dollar General where women's hair stuff is and get the little silicone rubber bands. Wrap around dew claw as tight as you can get it. They will loose circulation and fall off. Spray with blue lotion spray to prevent infection. On newborn pups clip them off with nail clippers.

Banding them will work fine then. It usually takes about a week for them to fall off. Just be sure to spray down with the blue lotion you can get it for at your local feed store. It will save you about $190 & the same results.

I'm not sure on that but I was told by my vet that most hind dew claws do not have a ligament in them making them very easy to remove & heal up easily.
