Pomeranians?

Question

I've been looking at Pomeranians for awhile and decided I would really like to have one. The problem is I don't know how my other dog would react to another dog in the house (She's very protective, and she's a German Shepard/Husky mix) and the dogs are kind of expensive. My parents are also very touchy about getting a new dog because they don't know if we should have one since a dog we had for many years died not too long ago last year and they're hard to pressure into things. My parents will admit to thinking Pomeranians are extremely cute but I need all the help I can get with convincing them to let me have a second dog. If that ever happens, I need to find a dog that isn't so expensive.

Answer 1

I'm not sure what you are looking for here, but instead of trying to find a cheap pomerainian (which if you find one will probably be a milled puppy) try going to a local shelter and adopting a dog really in need of a home.

Answer 2

Look into pom rescues.

Also, you must get the dog on a trial basis. Your dog, with the husky in it, has natural prey instinct and a small dog may not be a good idea. A similar dog may be better.

Also, don't forget that poms need a lot of grooming (both at home and from a professional). They are not easy up keep and aren't great with smaller children. Many I met are nippy.

Answer 3

I have a pom he is two years old, he is the sweetest dog.
I saved him from a horrible life when he was 8 months old he is my angel we where meant to find each other i had just lost my shitzu he died and i was devastated.i swore i would never have another dog until i found my pom we saved each other. anyway they are great dogs. but i do suggest that you test your dog first to see how it will react to smaller dogs before getting one. the last thing you want is to have a pom get hurt or not be excepted by your other dog.. i am sure your parents would love a pom they are very affectionate ,sweet and loving dogs .they want to be the center of attention though and they like lots of love. hope this helps

Answer 4

I have poms and they are very fragile, especially the puppies. My dogs get along well with a couple of Aussie's I know, but best to bring some small dogs into your house first to see how your dog reacts to sharing his space. do you have any friends that could bring their dog with them when they visit? Any new puppy with an existing dog would have to be watched continually for awhile as puppies play a lot and do not know how to defend themselves or to back off when warned.
A well bred healthy Pom wil be expensive, but of course the cost of the dog is insignificant compared to the care and feeding over a lifetime. Perhaps you may want to wait to get your Pom when you grow up and can care for it yourself. I changed from large dogs to Poms a few years back and would never have anything else. They are not ankle biters nor do they yap, but then I spent a lot of time socializing them to be good dogs, but of course this is something you have to do with any puppy for it to grow up to be a well behaved adult.

Answer 5
