At my age I can't recall if my dogs (Cockers) had dewclaws or not. But in either case it never caused a problem for them. They had tails docked at 3 days of age. I had to mark the place for vet because vets make the tails way too short for show dogs. I remember he cut them in front of me and I thought I was okay with it UNTIL he picked up the cut off pieces of tail and threw them in the garbage. I nearly had a face plant.
I imagine they were probably taken off if show dogs. The vast majority of breeders take them off I think. Most still do but some are starting to change their minds and leave them or ask what you want.
Ugh if I knew some guy was going around biting tails off of 3 day old puppies, I would have called the police. Also wouldn't have dated him either!

I love ornery animals!!!! What kind of dog was Gator? I love him already!!!I loved the sass!! Gator would snap the air in sass/talk back too!! Sometimes he would scoot backwards snapping the whole way when you told him he couldn’t go.
He also did it when he was feeling playful lol
Big goofball.
He also used to go on strike on walks. When he was tired and didn’t want to walk anymore or when he wanted to go the opposite direction as you, he would just flop down on the ground or plant himself and refuse to move.
One time my brother (different brother) tried to take him running and only got about halfway (maybe a couple miles) before he planted, refused to move, and he had to have his friend pick them up.
Granted, Gator had never really run before so probably wasn’t a smart idea, but I think he would have planted on a walk that long too.
Too far. Turn back.
Sometimes he didn’t want to get out of bed in the mornings either and you practically had to drag him out.
Laziest dang dog LOL
But soooo incredibly smart and he knew tons of tricks.
Me too!! He was also super smart sometimes you had to negotiate with him.
He was half black Lab and half Great Pyrenees.
And thank you! We did too!!
He really was a great dog. Not perfect but what dog is? Lol
We had to put him down a little over a year ago now, just a few days after Christmas.
Made dinner earlier. Also made GF oatmeal in cause anyone’s ready for breakfast.
Depending on your time zone, I’ve got meals for every occasion.

Good morning Cafe.
Coffee is on the stove.
Slightly cloudy here after a warmish night.
A day of keeping an eye on mums and chicks today. Once they are all out they will have to find decent cover close by and given it's winter here a lot of the favourite spots are a bit bare.
