SH?
I have no clue what that means.
It’s okay, most people probably don’t, I should have just said it but was trying to avoid doing so haha it means self harm, you know, cutting, etc. well, for me just cutting
Yeah, I’ve heard of it for cats too and people do it but a lot of vets won’t now because they say it’s cruel and I agree, it messes up their feet I think, and I have never heard of it for a dog and I didn’t know it could be done either
Maybe they meant just the dew claw...
I don’t think so lol for the cats I think they don’t want them scratching walls and furniture and dogs can scratch floors and stuff.
Yeah but I don’t mind so much, most places have the same restrictions, but it is actually awesome cause most places the weight limit is only 25 pounds or for some it is 50 lbs but normally never above and this one is 100 lbs and I saw one that was 70 lbs so I could get a Golden Retriever or Lab.
And yeah, exactly, it is probably the floor. I think declawing is cruel.
And I never thought of that for the utilities, thanks.
Wow I never knew that! Thanks for telling me that. That is very interesting. I had heard of some breeders of hunting dogs, like retrievers and such, leaving the dew claws on or at least the front ones so that they can get out of the ice and one of them made a video, apparently without the dew claws, they can have trouble getting out, cause the dew claw rotates and digs into the ice and helps them get out, and the difference between dogs with it and dogs without it was astounding, but I had never heard of it messing up their tendons or being good in general for active dogs. But ever since I saw that ice video, I decided I should leave the dew claws on if I can find a breeder that will.
