I do think there is a legitimate reason for removing dew claws to prevent them from being caught on something and ripped off. Also if an owner is negligent in nail clipping the dew claws grow curved and will grow into the skin.

I think docking tails, cropping ears and declawing is cruel and should not be done. I actually think tails and ears might be worse than declawing because they are done for no reason whatsoever just because we like how they look. I'm not judging anyone for doing this because the poll taken in the last few weeks clearly shows that most Americans prefer the tails to be docked.
