There are no breeds that specifically have hind dew claws, as most are removed by a vet. Some breeds are bred to have double dew claws, such as the Beauceron, Pyrenean Mountain Dog, Lundehund and Braird, but these breeds do not have the dew claws removed.

Bernese Mountain Dog, Saint Bernard, Great Pyrenees are just a few that come to mind. The rear dew claws are there for a reason, such as being able to dig into the deep snow to get around better.

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.

Do Bernese mountain dogs have double dewclaws in the hind quarters?

The Bernese Mountain Dog is not a breed known for having double dew claws, and for showing all the dew claws are usually removed. Breeds that are desired to have double dew claws on their hind legs are Beauceron's, Briard's, Pyrenean Mountain Dog's/Great Pyrenees and Lundehund's. Although some Bernese Mountain Dog's may be born with extra dew claws, they should be removed if the Dog is to be shown as some judges may class this as a fault.


Does rear dew claws mean a pit bull is not pure bred?

No, this does not mean that the Pit Bull isn't purebred, but it is highly likely, as they typically do not appear in purebred A.P.B.T. Rear dew claws can appear in some breeds but are usually removed due to the breed standard. Extra dew claws are not required in the American Staffordshire Terrier breed standard so most breeders will likely remove the rear dew claws before selling the puppy. If you encounter a Pit Bull that still has these extra claws, it probably means the breeder just didn't want to pay to have them professionally removed, and is probably a sub-standard breeder, and the dog may not be purebred.

Should you clip dew claws?

There are two possible answers to this, depending upon what you mean by your question. If you are referring to trimming nails, including the dew claws, the answer is yes - the dew claws will grow just like all the other toe nails and they need to be trimmed on a regular basis to keep them from growing into the side of the foreleg. If you are referring to removing dew claws, this is a decision you will need to make. Some breeds traditionally have their dew claws removed within a few days of birth as a breed standard; the reason given for this is the dew claws are very loosely attached and they risk being ripped off later in life as the dog performs its normal work. Other breeds traditionally do not have their dew claws removed; their dew claws are more firmly attached and are needed for the work they traditionally do such as digging or running over rough terrain. There is no real medical reason to remove them, so public sentiment is starting to lean towards not removing them unless you have a good reason to do so.
