The dew claws should be removed no later than the 4th day after birth if the owner or breeder chooses to do so. However, veterinarians exceedingly support leaving the dew claws in tact unless they are poorly connected to the leg and causing discomfort or gait problems with the dog or puppy.

Dew claws are not a useless appendage. They're useful to the dog, in order to assist in gripping of bones, chew toys, nibblesticks, etc.
