Puppy is now 4 and a half months old, we plan to get him castreated at 6-8 months and we have to decide if we want his extra dew claws removed (he has a extra claw/toe on each back leg), they are not causing a major problem but do get hitched in things and will need clipping (so far he is ok with me touching them but have not tried to clip them yet, will let the vet do it first).
The vet said they can take them off when he is castrated but sometimes they can bleed a lot wich would make surgery longer and cost me a lot more money.
Has anyone else had this with their dog? what would you do?
