About the Pomeranian
The Pomeranian is a small dog breed originating in Germany / Poland. Adult dogs typically weigh 3 to 7 pounds and live 12 to 16 years. The breed is described as vocal, spitz-confident, cold-tolerant, reserved-with-strangers.
Households comfortable with vocalisation and committed to daily coat brushing. Dense condo buildings where the breed's barking bothers neighbours, or owners who shave the coat (often grows back improperly).
Adult Pomeranians need about 30 minutes of daily exercise; adolescent dogs typically need 45 minutes. The coat is double-coated with high shedding, and weekly brushing keeps the coat manageable.
