My little girl has her dew claws and has never had any issues. The same can be said for any dogs we have had growing up. It's not common practice to remove them here (as far as I know) and tail docking is now not allowed also (Thankfully! Nothing better than a waggy tail!).
I wish I could give more information on whether a dew claw could grow back or not. Maybe a call to the vet would clear it up for you  |
My lil Canadian guy has a full tail and dew claws too- au natural-I love his waggy tail!!! My USA gal has a medium docked tail and no dew claws.
