lamping-lad 160 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 leave them on there there for a reason. Quote Link to post
Guest oldskool Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 the pup i have now has them and a good few of the lurchers i've had have had them with no problem although one lurcher got hers cut fairly regular and they were painful enough... i dont think they serve any useful purpose and i'd have them removed if given the choice Quote Link to post
Daveo 61 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 My dog only has one! I dont know why, perhaps someone removed one and forgot about the other? The one he has seems to get damaged quite regular, In fact its never healed right Im going to have it remove this summer. £100 at the vets for one!!!! Quote Link to post
mackay 3,395 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 They serve no purpose whatsoever and are better taken off. Quote Link to post
davidlloyd 16 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 have them off. any one that lets you pic a pup up with them on should foot the vets bill and suffer the pain the dog gos thro [bANNED TEXT] thay get split or riped.not a big job to do [bANNED TEXT] the pups are young Quote Link to post

Guest AngelicAcid Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 If you get a dog with them on cant you just tape them up for the day or nights hunting. Quote Link to post
