Question Dew Claws, Do they still have theirs?

Shylah still has her dew claws on her front paws, but not on her back ones. I talked to a vet tec and she said that some breeders don't take off the front ones because it can be very painful. Is this okay? Should I consider having them removed? What is the downside of keeping them? I have never had a dog with them. Why are they removed in the first place?
