Named for Pomerania in Germany, the
Pomeranian is said to have descended from larger sled dogs from the Arctic. In fact, the Pom
first came to public attention as a much larger dog, weighing in at about 30 pounds. English
breeders developed the miniaturized version of the Pomeranian that is so popular today. The
Pom is a devoted companion and lap dog.

As the smallest member of the Spitz family of
dogs, the Pomeranian stands just 11 inches tall at the shoulder and weighs between three and
seven pounds. His outer coat is thick, harsh, and stands out from his body. Daily grooming is
necessary to keep it tangle-free. His coat comes in a variety of colors and color
combinations. The Pom has a pointed little face, and carries his plumed tail curled up over
his back.
An alert, active, and lively little dog, the
Pomeranian makes a good watchdog. He is also friendly, outgoing, and playful. He enjoys the
company of other pets and will tolerate children provided they are not too rough with him. The
Pom will soak up all the pampering and petting you can dish out!
Principally bred to be a companion, the
Pomeranian makes a great house or apartment pet as he fits well into the smallest
accommodation. An affectionate and loyal dog, he makes an excellent companion for less active
seniors as he requires minimal exercise. |
