A dew claw on any canine animal is the solo claw on the paws behind all the rest. You can equate it to the thumb on us humans. It is on the inside portion of the leg and if you check on any dog you can feel it about .5 to 1 inch behind the rest of the claws.
It could possibly be irritated. You should check with you veterinarian. It may have to be removed.

Lions have five toes on the front paws and four on the back paws. In between each toe is a claw. The "thumb", though, has a dew claw which is more curved and often is off the ground. (Even domesticated house cats have a dew claw on each "thumb" on their front paws.) The back paws do not have dew claws.
