I love being a Pommy Mommy, so I decided to put together these 10 cool facts about Pomeranians to help in your decision making on becoming a parent to a new Pomeranian or Pomeranians.
1. Good Watch Dog’s
If someone comes into your home, let alone just passes by, Pomeranians will let you know! Pomeranians will never bark at nothing. When a Pom is barking, they are trying to alert their owner about something or someone. This makes them a great watch dog, as long as you have a Pomeranian around no one can sneak up on you!
2. Titanic Survivor
Of the nine dogs on board the Titanic, the two that were rescued were a Pomeranian and a Pekinese. It was reported that Margaret Hays (life boat #7) took her Pomeranian with her in a lifeboat the night the Titanic sank into the ocean. What a lucky Pomeranian! facts about pomeranians
3. Long Lifespan
The average lifespan of a healthy and well cared for Pomeranian is anywhere from 12-16 years! Making sure to take good care of your Pomeranian by feeding healthy food and making sure to get regular grooming and vet check ups is very important. With the proper care your Pomeranian’s can live a long and happy life. Because all of the Pommy Mommy Pomeranians are rescues, I have to take extra special care of them. They have all suffered an abusive past, but are spoiled rotten, and living the good life now!
Mommy says I’m “Pint Size”
4. Small in Size
Pomeranian’s are very well known for their small size. This makes them very easy to take with you on outings or when traveling. I often take my Pomeranian’s with me to an outdoor mall. I have a dog stroller for them and they get to ride around in style!
Pomeranians are very popular with owners that live in the city or in a smaller apartment/condo. However just because of their small size does not mean that they don’t require “play time” Pomeranian’s love to play and require lots of attention. This brings me to number five…
5. Highly Intelligent and Extroverted.
Pomeranians crave a lot of attention and constant love from their owner. My Pomeranians love to cuddle up on my favorite chair with me an snuggle in my lap. They seem to be one-owner dogs and are very loyal. My Pomeranians think they need to “escort” me everywhere! (Sometimes even to the bathroom) If I get up from my office to go into the kitchen the entire “Pack of Pomeranians” follow me! It’s almost like having an extra shadow! facts about pomeranians

6. Very Popular
Pomeranians have been among the more popular dog breeds in the United States, featured consistently in the Top 15 of registered AKC dog breeds over the last 10 years. Today you see many celebrity actors with Pomeranians because of their cute face and ability to take them on set when it’s time for the Pommy Mommy to go to work. Most of the popularity I think really comes from the ability to take them anywhere. They crave human companionship, are extremely intelligent… and most of all, are any women’s best friend.
7. Different Colors
Pomeranians come in many different sizes as well as COLORS! Here’s a list of all the different colors a Pomeranian can come in. facts about pomeranians
- Sable
- Red
- Orange
- Cream
- Brown and Black
- Tan or White
- Wolf Sable
- Chocolate
- Brindle
- Merle
- Lavender (Very Rare)
- Blue Pomeranian (A blue Pomeranian is not the color of the sky. You will actually know your Pomeranian is blue color by looking at his nose. It’s fur will be a dull black color but his nose will have actual blue color on it. His eyes may also be blue. ) facts about pomeranians
8. Double Coat
Pomeranians have a thick double coat. Grooming is not hard to do however, it is recommend that brushing be done often because of the thickness of the coat and the constant shedding. The more you brush a Pomeranian the less it will shed. The outer coat is long, straight, and harsh in texture while the undercoat is soft, thick and short. The undercoat is shed twice a year. Keeping up on regular maintenance is very important.
9. Nicknames
Pomeranians have lots of nicknames! Here’s a list of just a few!
- Pommy
- PomPom
- Pom
- The Teddy Bear Dog
- The Foxy Dog
10. Born to be Pampered
Pomeranians love having all of the attention focused on them. Most Pommy’s love going with their Pommy Mommy when they run errands or are traveling. Some Pomeranians enjoy getting dressed up and traveling in their “travel bag” My Pomeranian Maggie gets very excited when she sees me take out one of her dresses. She knows we’re getting ready to go somewhere and she get’s to go too! She hops right into her “travel bag” all by herself! And of course Pomeranians love their treats and Plush toys… mine love the designer inspired dog plush toys from Dog Diggin Designs.
Thank you so much for visiting Pommy Mommy where all Pomeranians are pampered along with their Pommy Mommies. If you are looking to pamper your Pomeranian you may want to get one of my Pommy Boxes.

That was a super cool fact about the Titanic. Reading about your poms makes me recognize that my Pom has so many of the same mannerisms. She follows me to the bathroom all the time and sits outside the door and waits until I am done. She also get super excited when I take her shirt out. She knows she is going on an adventure. Poms are the best.
My pomeranian is 4 months old and alot of his hair seems to be coming off.I am not sure if it is the shampoo or what?
Now he is losing puppy hair and getting new adult hair!!
no its not the shampoo. your pom is just going through a stage that is known as pup uglies or something like that. its that time when their baby fur is coming out and their adult fur is coming in, dont worry its temporary
Pom’s will lose their puppy fur before they get their adult coat. It is commonly called “puppy uglies”. This will pass.
My Pomeranian DOES bark at nothing! He barks and barks and barks and barks! I’m thinking of getting a squirt bottle to stop him from barking allot, where I live it’s only needed for outside, not inside.
Pomeranians are actually VERY uncommon where I live (Especially ones that aren’t blond) and I rarely see any, unless I go to my school which there’s a house across the field that has a Pomeranian in it… Or just look at mine 🙂
We have one 2 year old Pom that was a rescue from a very bad situation. She has a few issues since she was mistreated before finding her forever home, but is such a joy to have. She is now 5 pounds and loves to play with her toys. She is fine with our children and does not bite, she hates to be alone so whenever we start to leave she runs around in circles barking until I get home. We are glad we have our Pom Pom Foxy!
I love pompoms I have a rare color one. The color is a dark wolf. His name is Zeebo!! He’s so cute!!!!!!!!!!!!
My Pom, Samson, is 7 and is very protective. He growls and barks at my 7 year old daughter & will chase her & nip at her. Its infuriating because he will sit with her and let her pet him and play with her. I don’t get it….
Maria:
I suggest training NOW. This is resource guarding and should be stopped immediately. No one should have a dog that growls and nips at people – especially the people in his own home. Please contact your vet for referrals to local positive reinforcement trainers. There are many good websites and books you may purchase. Please check out Victoria Stillwell. Good luck.
Thank You Wendy you are a most valuable resource.
My little guy is super protective of me
Hello, my pom is Tessa and she is spoiled rotten to say the least! it doesnt surprise me about the titanic poms always want to be with their owner…always! mine follows me to even in the bathroom and is the best watch dog she always lets me know when someone is there and only barks when she is supposed to or is playing or wants to leave the house with me. one fact i didnt read is that poms are very curious and watch me do everything wanting to learn. i love my pom!
I desperately want a Pom, but my dad refuses to let me get one, saying that they’re just annoying little yappy ankle biters. I tried telling him otherwise, showing him stuff like this, but he refuses to listen, what can I do to help him see differently?
I’m really not qualified to do family counseling. I’m a Pommy Mommy. My first question is to ask you how old you are and why you need your father’s permission? If you need your father’s permission I would wait until I moved out from under his roof and would plan accordingly to rescue a Pomeranian when you find your own place. One thing I have learned is that when people don’t like Pomeranians the Poms suffer, and we don’t want that.
Jayden:
Keep researching dogs and Poms and when you are a self-supporting adult please adopt a Pom! Then you can show you dad that any dog breed can be social and well behaved. Good Luck.
I have a one and a half year old black and white parti pom named Boo. He is definitely loyal to me. And like you said, he follows me everywhere, even to the bathroom! He is so into me! He loves going with me to the nursing home everyday to see my mother! The residents there adore seeing him. He is a very good watch dog and is very protective of me when we are at home
or in my car. He is like a baby to me! I can’t imagine my life without him now.He is the sweetest little thing! This is my first pom and I am hooked on
them now! I love my Boo!

My daughter was given a dog as a present by a former boyfriend. However he is a cross Pomeranian and Chihuahua. Although adorable with likeness to a fox he suffers terrible epileptic fits. Is this a taboo health problem as we never knew this fact until we experienced a fit.. 4 or 5 per month. Heartbreking to watch..but to loveable to put down at 2yrs old.. If pain gets unbearable for foxy that is the only option available… sad
We had a Pomeranian named Sheika who suffered from seizures (epileptic fits) and she was fine with medication. The Vet put her on Phenobarbitol and maybe once every 6 – 8 months she had a small seizure. It is semi-controllable.
Teddy also has seizures. He takes Phb and KBr. If he has a break-through seizure I give him 1/2 a Valium. It still does not prevent him from being an awesome Therapy Dog.
This is all very true. Mine is like having another child. Don’t know what I would do without her. I have to thank my daughter for giveing her to me. I didn’t want another dog after mine passed but so glad she didn’t give up trying to get me to take her. She is always trying to find pets a good home. I love my Chloe.
IS it ok to leave it at home for a few hours if you go out for errands? I am considering whether to buy one.
I’m not sure about the question. Leave what at home for a few hours?
Alyna:
Of course – any dog can be left alone for a few hours. Many are home alone daily while their humans are at work. Please research dog ownership and breed facts to match a dog to your lifestyle. All good rescue groups will be happy to assist you with finding a dog to adopt that fits your schedule and habits. Please adopt don’t shop. Training and patience will go a long way for both your and your pet’s success and happiness.
Just want to say my girl loves to patrol the house. She just goes nuts if a chipmunk makes it to the porch. She goes crazy. Good watch dog, and I love her dearly.
Mowgli entered my life three weeks ago. He is four and came from a home with very young children, which I assume was not a good match! He is the most amazing dog I have ever known. He is intelligent, gentle, well behaved and loving. He loves people, other dogs and TREATS! He knows many tricks and loves to cuddle.
I was able to leave him with the run of the house during the day..right from the very beginning!
I wonder,to myself, all the time, what did I do to deserve such a wonderful and beautiful little man?
My pom Blue is the light of my life! He is nearly 9 months old now and has started over the last couple months to enjoy cuddling with me much more (at first he was very independent and as much as I tried to make him a lap dog he preferred to sit on his own and only cuddle when he was very sleepy).
I recently bought him a sweater and when we put him in it his temperment changes from his normally very bubbly energetic self to quite sullen and inactive. I’ve been putting him in his sweater a little bit each day to get him used to it but he continues not to enjoy his time in it (especially on walks, he will just sit on the sidewalk and not walk much). Do you have any suggestions on getting him to enjoy wearing clothing?
Great website, thanks for all your tips so far!
Sweaters are a little too restricting sometimes. They can make Pomeranians quite warm. Also, if it’s legs are being confined in anyway it can have an effect on him. Think if you wore jeans too tight or too warm you would be uncomfortable. Try putting loose, very light clothing on first and see if there is any change in temperament… then introduce heavy clothing. Yoki hates clothes and won’t let us put it on her… so we don’t.
Bought a Pom pup several weeks ago. Deidra is now 15weeks old. At first, she was just so sweet. Last few weeks she has turned into a little terror. Wears out both me and my husband. When I need to rest, I put her in her crate. I don’t want her to think she is being punished, but need a rest time. I’m a senior citizen and she compares to a two year old child in energy. Will she calm down soon?
She won’t calm down any time soon but you are doing the right thing by putting her in her crate when you need a rest.
Linda, putting any dog in a crate is OK as long as you make it into a “positive” experience for the pup. You don’t ever want to put them in there as “punishment” because that will not be good for the pup or you in the long run…the pup will continue to act out and “fight” not to go into the crate. Start by putting her in the crate during the day while she is behaving and put her in there with a REALLY high value treat (a kong stuffed with peanut butter, her favorite chew treat, anything that she LOVES and doesn’t get on a regular basis). Keep her in there for only 5 minutes to start, then build up the time to 10 minutes, then 15, then 30, then an hour…you get the idea. You want her to actually get excited to go into her crate which you are turning into a “Happy” place. This will make life easier for you in the long run as she will be fine being in her crate when you want her to be in there and she won’t be stressed out about it. I have 2 Poms of my own…one I’ve had since he’s 10 weeks old, the other is a 3.5 yr old rescue I’ve had for a year. I’ll be taking in another 12 yr old rescue this week 🙂 and I am in the process of becoming a professional dog trainer.
I hope this helps. WOOFY!

We just rescued a pomeranian off the highway, he was a total mess- fleas, worms, ear infections, under weight, skin infections, missing all his teeth! We aren’t a small dog family, but he has grown on us. We have no idea where he came from, he doesn’t know how to play or interact with other dogs, but he is always happy. This was an interesting read, we are learning everyday about this breed.
Check out the rest of http://pommymommy.com and you will be able to familiarize yourself more with my favorite breed.
My baby girl Sable she is only 5 years old. She is so adorable. I love being a pommymommy i dont think i could find a better dog like her. Just oh my gosh. ♥♥
Sassibell is like a red fox in disguise. Her coat is multi colored called sable. She is very sweet tempered, she dances & spins in circles both ways whether it is in anticipation of her supper, a treat or to go out. She has a discriminate taste..she eats almost anything if she thinks it is for people. She can usually be found sleeping on her back with all four legs up and tail wagging/dusting the floor when spoken to. She has been known to show her alpha side and can be intimidating to other dogs no matter their size. (She acts like a lot of small dogs .. Like she is 10 foot tall & bulletproof) We could not ask for a more devoted and loving friend. She makes noises like she is searching for truffles if she thinks there is a crumb on the floor that needs to be cleaned up. Her only health issue is bad knees that was diagnosed when she was a puppy. She is very well trained.
Those were very helpful facts ! I’ve been trying to train my pomeranian but sometimes she just doesn’t listen. She doesn’t eat her food often as well , even if we tried to stop feeding her human food for like a few days. The most problems I have with her is that she would not eat and she would not listen to me. Any tips on how to train her?
You need to be very patient with her. They are very smart and can read your frustration. If you spend 10 -15 minutes a day with no distractions and praise her and reward her. She will come around. Many times I tell people it no so much training the dog but training the Pommy Parent. Hope this helps.
Oh yes, and my Pom sometimes makes noises as if she’s choking or about to throw up. She also keeps sneezing lately. Should I really take her to the vet? Would it be worth it ?
You may be talking about Reverse Sneezing. I wrote a blog post about it a couple of weeks ago. Here’s the link: http://pommymommy.com/when-your-pomeranian-reverse-sneezes/
My pomeranian loves to jump in my purse or gym bag or any type of bag she knows goes with someone when they leave the house! Its adorable! Some people think I force her in my purse until I put her down and show them how much she loves to run and jump into bags by herself! My second pomeranian doesnt care for it as much lol
I love my foxpom “Duke”. I inherited him from my sister-in-law about 3 years ago. He is almost 10 now and I have never know a dog with so much personality.He has been such a positive addition to my life. He listens and seems to understand almost everything I say to him. There have been many dogs I have known in my life but this guy is so special he is so loving , interactive and full of fun.I am a Pomeranian fan for life. Love my Boy.
Aww thanks for putting this up here! It has made me even more confident that I am making a right choice to adopt one of these precious babies from a local rescue. :0)
Hi there,
I’m having Pommy, a 2 months baby for 5 days now. I fell in love when I saw her. But she is very aggressive. She growls and bites us alot. I say simple commands to keep her in control but that doesn’t work for too long. She stays indoor and she has her crated cage as well. I somehow litter training her and she does her best. The litter pan is inside her cage. The only thing is, she pees and poos on the floor whenever she is out from her cage. How can I control this? Also how to control her aggressiveness? Please help. Thank you.
Lizasri
First I would take the litter pan out of her cage… no dog like to “poop” where they eat or sleep. When you take her out of the crate put her in the litter pan and when she goes, you praise her and give her a treat. The aggressiveness needs to be evaluated in a way that you isolate the instances. Figure out what you are doing and what she is doing when she becomes aggressive. If you are on the couch and you go to pet her head from the front and over her head… and she growls, try a different approach. Next time try petting her under her chin from the side. You haven’t given me that much to work with but try this for the time being. Being a Pommy Parent takes patience… especially when they are little babies.
Thanks PommyMommy for your prompt reply. I will do as you say. Will update you further 🙂
i’m so aggresive to have a pomeranian, not just because they’re so cute but also I want to have a pet. But my mom wouldn’t allow me because our home isn’t compatible to have a pet. Does having a pom requires a big space at home and requires a lot of money for them to stay healthy?
They need space to run around and get exercise and it costs a minimum of $50 a month to keep them fed, healthy and groomed. Dog food, treats, Vet bills (shots… rabies, bordetella) and keeping hair groomed, nails cut, ears cleaned, potty path maintained. These are the minimum requirements that have to be down. If your Pom gets sick or hurt, God forbid… it can cost into the thousands.
My first Pom was given to me in 1975, she was a tiny little black puff ball, I have loved Poms ever since and have always had them one or more they are happy little babies.
My Pommy Clara is the love of my life but she is not cuddly. She never sits in my lap and prefers to sleep under the couch on the hardwood floor. Clara is very sweet, loyal and loving – just not a cuddler. She is also bigger – weighs in at 14 lbs.

I own an incredible pom named Dakota, he is 8 and the joy of my life!! Tomorrow we are driving 9 hours to pick up a new baby girl pom that i’ve pre named Kenzie!! I cannot wait to meet her and spoil her rotten!! I love that you are involved with rescue,there’s no way i can imagine anybody hurting a pom or any dog/cat /animal…they are so intelligent and emotional, they have feelings, i know this for a fact, Dakota is very sensitive to everything. Thank you so much for the work you do. If I could, I would have a house full of poms, there’s no end to the love I have for them.
I love Poms! Would like to adopt one but from where? No breeders near me and rescue groups are far away too. There are websites where you can order one up for several thousands of dollars and have it shipped to you like something from Amazon.co- but then how do I know they are not from puppy mills? Any suggestions on where to find a healthy Pom puppy?? I live near Chicago IL. Thanks. ; )
You forgot Parti Poms
los mejores sin ninguna duda
los mejores sin ninguna duda
Don’t forget we love to eat treats. I spin very fast in circles when I get a treat!
Our Pom Tuffy loves to go on short and long trips with us sleeping on our laps or between us
Which color of nose poms have?
Can you please tell me if it is possible for an all white female, and a mixed color male (brown, black, orange and white) to produce a litter that includes an all white, and 3 orange and white puppies? And btw, my granddog is an all-white Pom. He is so smart, and loyal. I love him so much. He’s brave too – constantly is “rescuing” me from frogs, hawks, and other scary things!
ooohhh… so cute! My daddy said he will get a Pom for me on my birthday. It’s in November, and I am counting the days for it. I’m so in LOVE!
Hi Pommymommy, our little ball of fluff is 16 months old and is a rescue dog. When we got Benji he was 16 wks old and we were his 4 family and his forever home. My problem is that whenever we take him out for his walks he becomes quite aggressive with the other dogs he meets which results in the other dogs being taken away from him. Do you have any advise please?
My first Pom was thrown out of a car window onto the service road I live on. A friend drove up on him and found out from her neighbor (they live about 5 miles further down the road) what had happened. He was running around in circles on the hot pavement. This was almost 3 summers ago during a horrible heat wave. He was left to die in 105 degree heat between the service road and Hwy 70. When my friend saw him she pulled over and he fell over. She brought him by the next morning and he looked bad. His nails were so long he couldn’t walk straight and his fur was as stiff as could be. It wasn’t long before I had him cleaned up and happy. Now he’s one of my constant companions. I guess it’s true – one’s man trash is another man’s treasure.
My pomeranian was abused as a puppy, she loves to go with me everywhere, but doesn’t like to sit with me. She just needs me to be in the same room as her, I have always heard they loved to be held, but not my Koki…. I wonder if it goes back to what happen to her as a puppy
i love my little charlie boy. he is a 2lb red or orange little stinker. some people are weary of him because they have been known to be aggressive but charlie loves everyone. he is spoiled
Heyy everyone 😀
…
Have a little pom named Cosmo, he is 10 years old now and still very much acts like a puppy, always wants to play and wakes up as soon as my alarm clock goes off with barking and clawing at the blankets (wake up mom!). These are very smart dog’s and if you pay attention will definitely tell you when they are hungry, or want to go outside for a potty in their own language! They are also very protective and good watchmen as will bark and notify you if someone is at the door before the door rings! Love these little dogs..Even though they can sometimes be little brats! (He growls angry at me if I get up in the middle of the night “I was comfy why you move?!” because he likes to sleep curled up on my chest or near my head!) haha <3 love the pommies
I have 2 pom one is 8 wk old but has a lot of spaces where his hair is falling out look like someone tried to curl his hair please help.
my pom Casper just turned 17. He still runs a little and is doing very well. He has had some recent problems with his back legs, but so far, so good
what about spinning cloe spins alot
I love my little Teddy
Re: #5. Have you ever read Merrill Markoe’s book, “What the Dogs Have Taught Me”? It is a compilation of essays, several of which are about dogs –and it is HILARIOUS! Also spot on, by the way. In one of the essays, she talks about her dogs insisting on accompanying her to the other room to fetch a Kleenex. She has “conversations ” with her dogs in the essays that are so funny! I initially checked the book out from my local library but enjoyed it so much that I ordered a copy to own. I keep it in my bedroom and read the best chapters a couple times a year. Highly recommended!
I was given a Pom as a gift when I was 19 years old I had never seen one before and I feel in love imediately due to cuteness had no idea the love & devotion they were full of >I had a litter of 3 with her and would never do that again but I had problems due to her ruputure and me feeding the babies on doll bottles and goats milk when ever necessary. Cured me of litters but not Poms. Foxie lived a long healthy life after all that but I have had several more since I am a Great-Great Grandma and so not a youngster but I always have a Pom who gets along with all my kids around regardless of age they say not a child’s dog but they will accept them when part of family. They are very-very protective and oh so loveable life would just NOT be the same without one in our home.I could go on and on but the main point being there are no better Fur-Babies for a loving family <3
I’m very sad I just got a pomapoo like 4 weeks ago since I got her she was sick the woman who sold me the little one told me that she was with a little bit of diarrhea and I took her to the vet immediately but eventually she get well but now she’s sick again I can’t afford to buy another one if she doesn’t get well I took her again to the vet and she think that she’s not going to be healthy and the woman who sold me the puppy don’t answer her phone since she sold me the little one.
I have just rescued 2 poms they are supposed to be sisters. I got Princess first about 2 months ago. She’s been to the vet.but has put on weight. I got her sister Sheba 3 days ago. She us do run down that she has very little down. Her Vet visit is tomorrow but I have been giving her s vitamin and mineral supplement for dog’s that are run down. She eats everything and tries to get in the trash. Is there anything else that you would recomend.
A pom ran up to my son one day he brought the dog home we really did not want to keep him because we had a dog. We keep him and tryed to find his owner but had no luck. And now he follows my son everywhere it’s like they can’t live without each other.If my son goes out the door he cries for him and is very protective over him. If my son is sleeping you can’t go anywhere near him or he will bite you.
What a great name Pommymommy, Love it
So much of this is my Miss Shelly Sue. She is the ultimate spoiled Princess. She lives the pampered life. Follows mom everywhere (even to the bathroom) she gets her monthly grooming She and her brother (a toy poodle have a posh hotel like cage when they are alone during the day. (I can actually fit in in it) She will be 13 in July. She is mommy’s pride and joy.
My pom started having seizures at 2 years old, was diagnosed with encephalitis, and was put on anti-seizure meds. I believe he was having reactions to his vaccines. I stopped all vaccines & only did the titer for the mandatory rabies & found vets who would cooperate giving him minimal boosters. I weaned him off the seizure meds within 6 months, ( which were supposed to be lifelong). Never a relapse! & he could hike 10 miles with us and has had so much energy. He is now 9 yrs, and has never had a seizure or a problem again. I hope this is helpful to some with the same problem. We love our Pom he has been the best dog.
Our pom chewie has had $10000 in surgery’s over his 11yrs. He now has liver disease. We don’t know what to do. The meds come with alot of side effects. He shows no signs of the disease as of now.the meds are $200 a month. We love him very much
I adopted my Pom at a shelter 10 months ago, he is 6 the best dog ever! Love him!
3 dogs survived Titanic. 1-2 of them were poms (I forgot hot many were poms)
I just had to put my 15 year old Pom down today. Saddest moment of my life I miss him so much. 🙁
Love pombears there a great dog. Very social, pretty and love being pampered!
I have one!!
I did have to take him today to the emergency hospital. Seems by not having him neutered, his prostate may be swollen causing him to have issues going number 2 and he had blood instead of stools today.. The vet cleaned his anal gland and he was able to pass stoles which I am sure made him happier than I was…..he has been a low maintenance dog, this is his first ailment in 13 yrs….I hope the medication does it job and my baby does not have to go through that again….he did not appreciate having his glands drained at all
My Pom is 13 yrs old and still acts like he is 3 months old. He has a lot of energy but with that being said, he is the most intelligent dog I have ever owned. Easier to train than my Doberman. Sherloch is sable colored and now that he is getting up in years his face is getting white (so cute). He is a lover who is great with kids and yes, he will bark to alert us to anyone on the property & that is a great thing when I am home alone. Pampered is one way of saying how much I love my little bundle of fur
I have one her names ginger ..
She’s my number one stalker ..I rescued her from troy ny ..
I have a pom ! Smartest dog i have ever owned , Im so glad he’s apart of my life

My pomeranian weighs 27 lbs, he’s a big boy. He has seizures since birth. You will never have a sweeter more loving little angel to spoil rotten.
I have a pomeranian named Foxy. She is very sweet and loves everyone. She licks everyone way too much though.

My Pomeranian are so cute but they are really mean and jealous to each other
These pics. Are pretty
How often do they shed ?
My pom is a little boy named Cujo. He & I are obsessed with each other. I wanted to share a tip I learned for the perfect t-shirt for a pom. Human baby tees! With that wide neck opening -perfect for all that fur! Sometimes I cut the sleeves off & fluff out all his “arm fur”. Try it
lol yep . . everything on this list describes Nala perfectly!
I know my two boys are spoiled little brats. And of course the nicknames “teddy bear dog ” and “foxy dog” fit my two to a tee.
We have been considering getting a pomeranian, just want to here from some owners how bad the shedding is. I have always had jack Russells and they shed terrible. If I vacuum the car and take one for a ride by the time I get back you know the dog was in the car. What is the poms shedding, if you pick one up are you going to have fluffy hair all over your clothes, will they leave evidence behind in your car and everywhere they go constantly?
our pomeranian goes everywhere with us. His name is murphy. Mur is going to florida with us. he love to travel.He is so smart. He know when are going somewhere and wait at the door so we have to take with us.
My Pomeranians name is Janapho and she is a supper love bug. I love her and she is always in tow where ever I go.
You forgot to mention that they are super super foodie lol, always want to eat!
I have 2 sweet pommys, both a year old, from different breeders. They are both very quiet. My only issue is my female….she bites onto my pants leg when she thinks I might leave the house without her….I guess she wants to make sure I don’t forget her.
I never wanted a Pom. My neighbor has 4 & they bark all the time & pee all over the house. I thought they were dumb, loud dogs. The neighbors next to me told me they tried to bite their 2 young kids when they dug under the fence & got into their backyard!!
In June, I was watching the news & the SPCA had a 6 month old puppy. He was absolutely adorable & quiet. I told my husband I had to have him. Never saw a quiet, calm puppy! I waited 2hrs for the doors to open & saw him. He was a mix. Half pom & 22 pounds. I was worried cuz my husband called him a barking piss mutt.. He was sooo sweet & quiet, I took him. He was an outdoor puppy. He chews everything wood & plastic. It took me 2-3 weeks to potty train him.
He is soo smart, if he has to go, he comes over & nibbles or licks your toes. Outside he barked & I told him no a few times., he learned to stop. (It helps cuz I have a husky. They never bark). Lol
He is extremely fluffy, sweet & fast! He makes friends quickly. He actually cuddles!! He loves the cats & actually thinks hes a cat! Lol.
I have to brag!! One night my husband fell asleep in his chair. We have had the puppy for 5 months! He bit my husband hand & then ran to the kitchen. My husband was shocked he got bit! He got up, thinking the puppy had to the bathroom. But he refused to go outside. He barked at the door. My husband thought he was being stupid & went back to his chair & the puppy kept barking at the door. All the animals were in the kitchen due to the noise & my husband noticed one of our cats was missing!! He searched the house & checked the backyard. He opened the front door & there was 2 eyes staring at him!! It was our Maine Coon!! He is declawed & we still have no clue to how he got out?!?!
If it were not for our fantastic pom mix, we would not even notice the cat was gone for at least 6 more hrs!!
My husband no longer calls him the barking pisser!! Our pom mix has changed us!! He is very protective of every living being in our home! He is extremely intelligent!! Thoughtful, caring, sweet, loving and playful!
I wish I knew what he was mixed with!! We will never find another dog like him!! I am soooo glad he is only 11months old. We have years to enjoy every minute of every day with him & the other loving animals in our home! He is orangey blonde & has a fox face. He looks like a pom but for the fact he is 22 pounds! He is the greatest!! Not sure how much of his personality is Pom like or the mysterious other half. Lol. I had to share my story. He has the double coat, too.
She doesnt want the treat, nor does she come when called
I call her BELLA , and when i do call her ate try treats, NOTHING
I have an 8 week old pom. I need help..
Like any animal they desire a lot of attention and need tender loving care.
I have 3 POM’s and I just love them!!! 1 is black one is sable and the last is choclate! They are adorable! And we just had puppies to the sable and chocolate!!!
Omg, BELLA My Pom is wonderful she is to smart for her little Dresses.. Lol. She is now 14 weeks old when i posted she was only 9 weeks, and like i said has become a wonderful bundle of happiness. Thank you for all the in put..
I have two now and one that passed. They are my heart. I enjoyed reading about them. I didn’t know they came in all colors
My blonde pom…is named Mr Bo jangles

When I was 13 I told my mom I was going to have one and that is the first thing I ever bought myself a pom his name is Akari he is a tri party pom he is red cream and black at the age four he has separation anxiety and will have a fit if left behind so I own a grooming shop now and he comes to work with me and now I have a black with a white dot his name is jinxi he is two and was a rescue pom his family just up and left him he is not friendly with many people but loves me and I love him gosh poms are a great breed
Hi, just want to ask. Our pom suddenly barks at me at a distant and when i walked towards him,he backs out, and then suddenly tries to attack me. Is he going to bite me?

We rescued our Parti Pom six years ago and he is been the joy of our lives! He rides on the back of my motorcycle with me and he is fearless! He is definitely a cuddlerand he loves cuddling with me or his mom. He is the best dog!
I have a Pom her age is 4months old how many times a day should I feed her
I am reading this with tears as my baby is 16 12 and having a lot of age related problems.
I have a 6 year old male, black pom. He barks at everything and nothing. Thank goodness we live in the country on a private road. Is there a way to stop them from barking up a storm when people leave your home?
Why do some dogs breath weird?
yay
I had a Pomeranian named princess and she sure was a princess, and she sure was my princess! Unfortunately I lost her this past May and she’s truly unreplaceable but I Im grateful for the 14 years I had with her
No. 11 Poms are like Tim Tams you can never have just one.
I just got a 6 year old pomeranian who has not been the best well taken care of, I took him today and had him groomed they cut him short so his coat can all grow back the same (we hope) what are some things I can do to ensure he is healthy, as in what is best food? They fed him table scraps and a little dog food, so far henough hasn’t ate the dog food but did eat some meat, he is the sweetest, well trained dog and I want to ensure he remains healthy and happy from here on out
What a joy to have a pom! We have a 110 pound rescue fur baby and Kip thinks she is alpha and is known to swipe treats from big Bert. We taught her to ring a bell hanging on the back door and she is quick to let us know she wants out. She amazes me the way she has picked up on routines. Ask her if she wants to go out the “front door” or “back door” and she will let you know. I still have not mastered how to keep up with so much fur and have had to depend upon a favorite groomer. She surprised me by weighing in at 11 pounds.
