no down fall they might hang on something now and again , just be sure and watch them and keep the nails trimmed so they don't curl around and grow back into the leg .

lots of natural bob tails and single dew claws as well as double dew claws in the mt. cur breed...I don't care for dew claws but it is not a big issue. Natural bob tails are ok as long as the tails are not real short because it can become as problem...I prefer the pups to be born with a normal tail and the dock it as a little pup so that it will be about 5 inches when the pup is born... |

I've got two young dogs with full size double dews on the back, Their about 10 months old now and I have just started hauling them. I keep them trimmed to about half their normal length and have'nt had any trouble. I've done the same thing with others that I have had in the past and only had one rip out a nail.  |
