Do pyrenese have an extra toe on the outer side of each paw? My puppy does, I don't know if he's mixed or pure bred.

Dogs have four toes per paw. Big whites will have double dew claws on the inside of each hind leg (two nails each with a pad).

If you got your Pyr from a reputable breeder, you will know for certain that he is a purebred since he'll have come with registration papers from a recognized kennel club.

Otherwise, it's up in the air as to what you have. If you went to a backyard breeder or farmer, they'll mix big whites to get the one pup that they want, unfortunately.
