If this nail is left untrimmed, it can cause pain and damage to the dog's leg.

Some dog breeds have dew claws on their back legs as well.

and that's how the dew claw got its name.

Not all dogs are born with dew claws, some only have the toenail on the front leg and other breeds have them on all four legs.
