About pomeranians
Tiny, bright-eyed, and spunky, the adorable Pomeranian is endlessly curious and more than happy to be the cutest thing in your world. One of the most popular breeds in the world, Pomeranians are surprisingly adaptable and perfectly suited for urban living.
They don't need much room to exercise and are more than content to live in a small apartment. This lap dog loves long walks, chasing leaves, and playing with other small dogs. Pomeranians are surprisingly athletic, agile, and intelligent. When not pining for their owner's attention, Pomeranians can be found trotting around the house on a special canine mission or performing as a top athlete on the agility course and in and winning best-in-show competitions.
pomeranian Care
Pomeranians have an iconically beautiful, albeit profuse double coat that needs lots and lots of brushing but is otherwise easy to care for.
Pomeranians are friendly, playful, lively, and respond well to training. They are extroverted and enjoy being the center of your attention, but they can show dominant behavior and stubbornness if not trained and socialized.
Poms can show aggression when confronted by strange dogs and humans. Poms are alert and highly sensitive to changes in their environment. This causes them to bark a lot. Poms can also be a challenge to housetrain. Like most small breeds, however, with patience, consistency and lots of loving care and attention, your Pomeranian will quickly become your cutest friend and most loyal companion.
Pomeranians are sensitive to heat, especially heat stroke, which can be fatal for dogs. It's important to keep an eye on your puppy's heat level and to find a cool, air-conditioned room when you notice lethargy, drooling, and excessive panting. Also, be sure your Pom always has access to plenty of cool water.
