(sorry for the 101 but its not something ive ever had to consider and now i have a week to decide wether to do it or not.)

She will always be my number one priority so even if that doesnt agree with other people thats fine. But I don't understand why other people are so against it, so if I can find out before the op the better rather than getting a nasty surprise after and regretting the decision I made for her.

if your dog injures themselves frequently then it would be in her best interests to have them removed at the same time as another procedure is done.
at least she will be given a ga and painkillers unlike puppy dew claws removal and tail docking!!!

I wasnt commented on having them removed as I dont know why she is - just where it was asked what the difference was from having a dog spayed to the dew claws removed - for me its a massive difference.
