YES!! Flex as well as my other 2 dogs DEFINITELY use their dewclaws on a daily basis, very similar to how we use our thumbs. Dewclaws on the back legs aren’t very functional for the dog but in my opinion after seeing pretty much all of my past and present dogs become surprisingly skilled at using their claws for all sorts of things I personally would never want them removed. It is true that the dewclaws could potentially get caught on something but so could the rest of their nails, and I’ve never experienced any situations like that over the years. The dewclaws is the only claw that doesn’t come into contact with the ground so it stays pretty sharp. My dogs use theirs when play fighting/digging/holding a bone just right to chew on it/holding toys/etc.
