My purebred beagle has webbed paws, is this normal for them?

Question

Do pure-breed beagles have webbed paws? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Male | neutered | 10 years and 2 months old

Andrea M. Brodie, DVM · Accepted Answer

It is not in the breed standard for a beagle to have webbed feet and it is -therefore not a method of verifying that a beagle is pure-bred or not. Webbed feet can occur in all breeds, but this would be not a regular occurrence. There are only a few breeds listed as having webbed feet: Dachshunds, Newfoundlands, Portuguese Water Dogs, Chesapeake Bay retriever, field Spaniel and German wirehaired pointer amongst others. Beagles are not listed.
