This older dog's dewclaw is rounded from use while running, but it has grown.thumb|Some active dogs' dewclaws make more frequent contact with the ground while running, so they wear down naturally, as do their other claws.

A forelimb or front limb is one of the paired articulated appendages (limbs) attached on the cranial (anterior) end of a terrestrial tetrapod vertebrate's torso. With reference to quadrupeds, the term foreleg or front leg is often used instead. In bipedal animals with an upright posture (e.g. humans and some other primates), the term upper limb is often used.
