I spoke to the breeder and she says that she doesn't do it because it looks painful and that's it's equivalent to removing one of our toes. However, she says if I really want to, I will have to pay for it. I called around 10 vets in the breeder's area and found the best deal at $40 per pup for dew claw removal. Well, the thing is, there's 2 girls and I don't know which I'm getting yet, so it'd be $80 for both. Do you think it's fair that I pay for both girls? I don't mind paying for one as it's my preference to have it done...Advice please!

Thanks!
