BREED DESCRIPTION
The Pomeranian is the smallest member of that family of northern breeds. The Queen of Britain wanted the breed reduced
originally weighing between 12-18 lb and the British breeders were successful in the task by making the dogs only 3-7lb.
The Pomeranian has since become one of the most popular of the Toy breeds.
The Pomeranian exhibits intelligence
and a vivacious spirit. With his tame temper, alert animation and cocky attitude, he is a most appealing pet and
companion.
The Pomeranian is an ideal house pet for adults who spend a lot of time indoors. He makes a good
watchdog, manages with a minimum of exercise and enjoys being pampered. He is cheerful, alert and inquisitive.
This little dog may weigh from 3-7 lb or 4-6 lb.
Over the soft, fluffy undercoat there's a long, perfectly
straight and glistening outer coat covering the body. It's abundant around the neck, shoulders and chest where it forms
a frill of profuse, off-standing hair.
Gentle daily brushing is needed to keep the coat free of mats.
