Pomeranians - Pros And Cons Of Adopting a Dog
Pomeranians are lovely, fragile dogs. They are rated best with older people and those willing to devote much time to their little companions. Like any other breed of dog, the Pomeranian does not suit everybody, and adoption should be thoroughly thought over.
Rescue officers spare no pains to re-home Pomeranians. Their first and foremost concern is to the dogs. Nevertheless, you will hardly have a chance to adopt a Pomeranian unless you meet some just demands.

Pomeranians - Time Involved

Make sure you are ready to spend much time with your rescued Pomeranian. These dogs are very devoted to their owners and need a great deal of interaction. The breed is not recommended to people who are constantly pressed for time.
Keep in mind that a lot of time is required not only for mere interaction but also for training sessions. Pomeranians are said to be a little bit hard to train. Sure enough, the breed's stubbornness and significant independence are to blame. However, these features are likely to originate from poor training rather than from poor personality traits.

Pomeranians - Costs Of Owning a Dog
Rescuing and adopting a Pomeranian involves considerable costs. Grooming is necessary since the Pomeranian sheds. Ask yourself if you can afford professional grooming services twice a year plus special supplies to weekly care for the dog's coat.
Pomeranians - Living Conditions
Pomeranians are great pets for city dwellers. They do not need a lot of exercise and their diminutive size goes perfectly well with less space available in apartments. It is a good idea to place a rescued Pomeranian with another small companion in case you have to be gone for long hours. Loneliness and the boring atmosphere of an empty apartment make a Pomeranian bark a lot.
Pomeranians - Dogs Found In Rescues
Numerous officers state that most Pomeranians come from irresponsible breeding and puppy mills. The breed's popularity attracts many money-makers, who damage the Pomeranian by means of unplanned and irrational breedings. Most common rescue Pomeranians are those of orange, orange sable, and tan colors

Pomeranian dogs are prone to several genetic diseases, such as slipped stifle, and knee problems, as well as skin, heart and eye problems.

It is best to feed Pomeranian dogs with dry food
They are good city dogs and are fine without a garden; however like Maltese dogs they should not be let out in very hot or cold conditions. ...live to around 15 years old,
great with kids and other pets, lively and make up for size with temperament...are often involved in fights between dogs, and are never afraid to attack much larger dogs that could easily swallow them whole, this behaviour can be curbed if it is picked up from an early age.

A well-trained dog makes everyone happy, including his owner. Take a little time training him, and you'll never regret it; you'll always have an obedient dog by your side. Find more https://tr.im/JKTdN

By their nature, dogs are pack animals with a well-defined social order. Through basic training, you need to consistently make sure your puppy understands that you are the leader, not him. So in teaching him the basic rules, you take on the role of pack leader.

To fit into the family circle, your dog must be taught to recognize his name and such commands as come, heel, lie down and sit.

I own a pom, and she is very sweet and loyal to us. They have a tendancy to be very yappy especially when someone knocks on the door. Mine is 3 and has no health problems, and i feed her whatever she wants and feed the raw diet. I do feed innova when i do not feed the raw. They do not eat very much just about a couple cupfulls a day. Mine gets snack in between that i make myself. I love my pom, but they are hard to housebreak and have been known to have seizures due to low blood sugar, but this is nothing a tablespoon of honey a day will not take care of.

I'll tell you my experience with the one I bought. I think they are really cute dogs and thought I wanted one... I got one from a local pet store for $600 because he had a small birth defect that allowed his leg to pop in and out of socket which only mattered if I wanted to breed him which I didn't so I saved about 50% of what they wanted for him.

He screamed, not barked, screamed for like four hours (my upstairs neighbor told me) when I was gone one day, pooped (not too solid either) on the floor all the time even tho he would go outside too, he ripped out pieces of carpet so there were little bald spots all over the place and was so hyper and insane my son was scared of him. The final straw was when my two yr old son was walking around naked and the puppy latched onto his privates. This was all in the first three days I had him. He was also sick when I got him. I took him back and got my money back but they said Pomeranians always diarrhea when they get excited...and that they are easily excitable...

i have a pom and she is so sweet......i have taught her not to bark in the house..because i hate a yappy dog. i feed her dried dog food and room temp water because she gets sick after drinking cold water. they need to be brushed often.i have had her for 9 yrs.i got her fixed after her first litter of pups.now you will need alot of patients when training any dog and hitting isn't the answer.i used a news paper and the sound got their attention.I didn't hit her. i hope that helps you abit,good luck in choosing a dog

All I know about Pomeranians, is that they tend to be hyper. Not all, but many small dog breeds are like that.
