[Chip's Mom]

In my opinion it is a good thing to remove the dewclaws at a very early age. They very easily catch that nail on different things and tear it. It is very painful for them. Dale and Taffy's dewclaws have been removed but Chip still has his. If they are removed when they are older, it is much more painful.

Personally, I wouldn't want my dogs to be neutered or spayed that early. I think they are much to young but just my personal opinion. Six months has been a good age for my three.
