Are rottweilers supposed to be dewclawed?

Most breeders do not tend to remove the front dewclaws, however they do have rear dewclaws removed as per the breed standard. Dew claws are normally removed within the first few days as a pup, this must be done by a veterinarian. As with all dogs they can catch them, which can be very painful, or they can become overgrown, consulting a veterinarian in these situations is the best way forward, they may suggest having them removed which will require sedation. Most rottweilers are born with just the front dewclaws, however rear dewclaws are quite common.
