My Allie who I adopted in March has her dew claws on the front and back. Her front are very attached, but her back one's are just attached by skin and not at the bone. However at times she does chew on the back one's. So I'm always checking those.
I talked with the Vet and we will think about removing her back one's when she has a dental done. Which won't be until next March, she had just had her teeth cleaned and was spayed by the Rescue Group in March before I adopted her.
