Thank you very much for that, I thought i was never gona get an answer lol.
1 of my yorkie girls toe nails grows inwards towards her paws and I need to clip them every few weeks. it wasnt untill i had her a while that i noticed this and was in shock when I seen it..Do you think that maybe that was because she never got her dew claws removed or maybe it was just a natural thing
