Puppies claws will fall out to make room for their adult ones and the same goes for their teeth. Adult dogs can lose a "dew claw" which is behind the foot. Sometimes dogs need to have Dew Claw removed by their vet because they can get caught on things and cause infection. It's best to take your dog to the vets to be sure everything is OK.

Do dogs dew claws fall off as they get older?
Dewclaws are the small, often non-weight-bearing claws located higher up on a dog's leg. They can sometimes become loose or fall off due to injury, infection, or lack of proper grooming, but they do not typically fall off simply as a dog ages. In some cases, dewclaws may need to be removed surgically if they cause issues, but this is not a common occurrence related to aging. Regular checks and grooming can help maintain their health and prevent complications.

Why do cats and dogs have claws?
Cats and dogs are predators, but they use their claws for different things. A cat's claws are very sharp and curved and can be retracted (except for the Cheetah, who cannot retract its claws). A cat uses its claws for many different things; climbing, self-defence, gripping hold of prey and other items (toys for example in domestic cats). They will retract their claws when walking, running or resting to prevent any damage being done to the claws. A dog's claws cannot be retracted like a cat's can, and their main use is for gripping the ground while walking, running or chasing prey. A dog primarily uses its mouth and teeth to grab hold of prey and bring it down, for defence, and as various means of communication.
