Cocker Spaniel and Pomeranian. I adopted a Cockeranian a few days ago. Its hard to tell what his personality is really like. Any information you know of?

Mixed breed personality is a genetic toss-up, like playing roulette. You see his personality as he gets older. I hope you're using a crate? Both breeds can be hard to housebreak.
Read some great books on training. (Try not to pick books randomly - there are a lot of bad books out there also!) These are some of my favorites and you can get them on Amazon.com

My experience with Puppy:
I used to have a Cocker Spaniel he was fun loving and came to anything. I was a kid when I had him so he loved being around kids and never bite me or anything. He was also a great pet for a family. I even taught him how to fetch and play dead.
Information about them: life expection is 12-15 years, the eyes need regural cleaning, they are senstive to your moods, nature loving, loves to play!! I hope you and your new dog enjoy many years together have a nice day and have a good life!!

Awww...that must be a pretty cute puppy! Unfortunately, when you have a mixed breed dog, there is no way to tell what his personality will be like before you actually get to know him.
The only way to figure out what kind of personality he has is to spend a lot of time playing with him and seeing how he reacts to you and your family. Each dog has a unique personality and part of the fun of getting a new dog is getting to figure out its traits and bonding with it!
Have fun!

Could be like a Cocker.
Could be like a Pomeranian.
Its a crossbreed, hard to know...
I hope you got your crossbreed at a shelter and not from some idiot breeding mutts on purpose.

No I want to see 1 !!! GitEmGang just SHUT UP AND GROW UP!!! Just because your mad that people get mutts doesnt mean you have to take it out on them. Mutts are healthier. I am sorry I had to say it.
