If you get her dew claws removed now...... it will hurt her very much. We tail dock and dew claw remove when they are only a day or two old because their nerves are not fully developed and will recover very fast. Dew claws are not bad unless you neglect them. It is possible it gets caught on stuff so you just have to be careful. If the nail is too long and you can't cut it with a dog trimmer, use a human nail clipper where you can cut from the side. My older boy yorkie never got his removed either so I keep a very close eye on it. Always trim it and she'll be fine.
