I'd like to know the same. i have a Pyrenees weiller mix and she has souble dew claws. im not sure if i should get them removed.
All breeds of dog have atleast two dew claws (unless they are removed) but a pedigree Great Pyrenees should have a dew claw on each front leg and double dew claws on both hind legs.
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.

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.
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.
AKC standards in breeds are very strict, and the organization has standards about double dew claws. Very few breeds are allowed double dew claws, but one breed in which they are acceptable is the Great Pyrenees.
nothing. Most dogs do not have rear dew claws
All dogs including border collies have dew claws.
You don't dock a puppys tail, it's illegal and cruel. And it's animal cruelty to remove its claws
