An Ode to Double Dew Claws

An Ode to Double Dews
by Jeanne Hieb

Other dogs have one dew claw,
But your paws sport two
Whether by hereditary or anomaly
An extra toe grew

It dangles and waves
As you walk or you run
It hangs off your ankle
It’s not useful or fun

The vet says to lop ‘em
It’s the right thing to do
But I opt to keep ‘em
‘cause they’re part of you


"If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principle difference between dog and man." -- Mark Twain
