Grooming

Due to their double coat, poms require frequent maintenance and should be brushed at least twice per week. They shed somewhat periodically and more while under stress or in hot weather.

Allergies, vision issues, hip dysplasia, patellar luxation, and epilepsy can affect pomeranians. Early intervention is crucial. Select a noble ancestry.

Temperament

Poms are intelligent, gregarious dogs who gain from early socialisation. Despite having small-dog syndrome, they make excellent watchdogs.

Pomeranians are versatile and suitable for homes with a yard or flats. They require companionship, quick strolls, and playing. Observe children as they play. In high temperatures, not good.
