Beagles are not known for having hind dew claws, but some may be born with extra ones. Usually these will be removed if the dog is to be shown.

Are dewclaws breed specific?
If your dog is to be shown and is Kennel Club registered, then look at its Breed Standard to see how many dew claws your dog should have and whether they should be removed. Most breeds are different and some may require the dew claws to be removed. Here is an example of some breeds rules on dew claws:Beauceron, Briard or Great Pyrenees - Double dew claws on the hind legs and single dew claws on the front legs. Never removed if the dog is to be shown.Staffordshire Bull Terrier and many other breeds - Usually only single dew claws on front legs and none on hind legs. All removed for showing.Lundehund/Puffin Hound - Double dew claws on front legs and on back legs. Should have eight in total. Never removed for showing.Rottweiler and some other breeds - Single dew claws on front legs and sometimes on back legs. Rear dew claws should be removed. Front dew claws not relevant.I cannot give you every breed's standard on dew claws, but look on the Kennel Club website for other breeds.
