I was told hes pure pom. But obviously he isn't. Hes approx. 14lbs-16lbs. When he barks, he sounds like a german shephard..
When he was 4months old

I'm sorry I meant he sounds like a big dog, very deep bark. not german shephard. He sorta resembles a german shephard when he was alil younger.

Yeah I have two other poms and one is almost 20lbs but they look completely diff. They both have shorter nose & shorter ears. And theyre bark is alil higher pitched.

He could be a pure pom, but without papers from a breeder there's no way to know for sure. Even with papers, that doesn't mean that he is a "show quality" dog--only that he is purebred. Many people breed dogs that don't look like they should, so you get a lot of what show people would call "disqualifications" (too big, too long, too tall, wrong color, nose to long, hair too short, etc, etc). He's cute, though. :)

He might well be pure pom as far as the papers go. The papers are only as good as the breeders they come from and if it is from a puppy "farm" there is no telling what went over the fence. He's a good looking dog and you will likely have some hybrid advantages in health and intellegence. I would count it as a blessing and enjoy him as an individual, not as just another pom.

He looks like a pom. But I can see something else in there. It seems like one of his grand or great grand parents had some sheltie in them, but the signs are really thinned out. I'm not all that adversed in smaller dog breeds but I do know what a pure pom looks like and that's not it.

He looks like a pom to me.
15 pounds is about adverage for poms sometimes they get larger, that's why they're sold as pets.
If anything, it could be a sheltie mix.
Maybe Papillion, but those stay small too.

I agree with KimbeeJ. Alot of breeders DO NOT breed quailty dogs. Thats why you get pups like the one you have. But he is cute. But not for breeding.
