2 boxers and 2 chis
No it is not something that is done to chis. I can't believe any vet in his/her right mind would de-claw any dog except for removing the dew claws. That is just horrible! Poor fella. The owner that requested that be done and the vet that did it both need a good smack!Originally Posted by rg_girlca

That is horrible!! That is the only word for it....dew claws I can understand...but not the others.....horrible....I cannot believe a vet would do this.....or maybe it wasn't even the vet....that is even a more horrible thought....

that is weird. My vet did remove one toenail from one dog once but it was because there was some sort of problem with that particular nail (I can't remember what it was, but it was something out of the ordinary).

I just spoke with the woman again tonight and she said that the neighbours bought the condo next door last summer, which were built in 2007, and she guess that they didn't want the dog scratching the floors because Chi's have long nails. I said big deal, tell her she should have gotten carpets then. Then she hit me with this; "The woman died of cancer last November and she was my friend." I told her I was sorry, that I didn't know. That's why the husband gave her the dog because he said he couldn't take care of him properly because he is depressed over the loss of his wife.
She has all his papers along with the vets and she said yes, that the declawing was done by a vet. I also can't believe a vet would do this to a dog. Like others have said, the dewclaws, yes, but not all four paws. Poor little thing. I pray he doesn't have problems later on from it.
Stupid, stupid people. People like that shouldn't have animals when they value their floors more than the animal itself. They also have a cat and I can bet the cat was declawed also. Poor thing.

love guster dont eat them
Chihuahuas have longer nails than other breeds? Really? I'd not heard that before. Seems like a nail clipper would keep them as short as any other dog's. I just don't understand getting a uncaged pet if that's how you feel about your floor. Maybe they should look at having an aquarium.
