Mark,
As Griff has already pointed out, the left hand badge is purporting to be an ORs post 1920 pattern example.
However, despite the sweat holes to the rear of the title scroll I think it's a modern copy. If you compare it with the one shown in my album you will see the differences. The pattern of yours is the same as the many common copies offered for sale.
The Dragon is an Officer only badge worn from 1902 up until 1938 on service dress. They wore embroidered Dragons on No.1 dress.
As to the dew claw it just looks like a burr that hasn't been removed. Dew claws are at the back of the leg anyway (I have two hunting dogs).
Hope that helps.
Kevin
