dont quote me on this but sometimes they are prone to appear if the dogs are close bred,should have been taken off at 3 days would have saved alot of money and weeks in sick bay

yeah the one knacker job is genetic fault ..if the ball is retained inside the dog they do recomend removal. due to the possibility of cancer! some vets recomend full castration not sure that is neccessry ...but really you shouldnt breed from him as the trait will be passed on !!

Rear dew claws are a result of extreme in breeding. They can be removed easily at two days old. In my opinion they will not cause your dog any problem. Sometimes they cause trouble for running dogs or hounds. However they can aide terriers when there pushing. I think a lot of men working rocks always leave front dew claws on for extra grip. I would leave well alone unless they cause the dog trouble.

i leave the dew claws on my terriers imo they do aid the dogs but on the rear they tend to be floppy and can snag up. As for the knackers i thaut my terrier had a retained one after speaking to the vet i decided if he got to 12 months and the other hadnt dropped then id have them removed, i checked him regular but nothing then bang on 12 months on his final check there they where both little knackers i was well chuffed so dont write him off yet.
