@cashh - Just curious, did you have your dog excused? Typically it is because of being lame in the ring or not letting the judge to exam the dog?

Removing dewclaws is up to the breeder. There is no requirement to remove or not remove. In the US, I would guess it is about 50% leave them, 50% remove them

Thank you, I appreciate your response.

I have also seen current research on dewclaw removal that has me convinced to never do it again. I am exhausted but will try to post the links if anyone is interested... maybe tomorrow
