Blue Pomeranian Puppies Make Fun Loving Companions For Families Of Any Size

By Christine Stone


Most dog lovers have strong opinions when it comes to which breeds make the best pets. Some buy dogs that serve mainly as family guardians. Others prefer large, active canines they can share outdoor events with. Still others would never consider anything but a tiny, lovable, furry bundle. If the last describes you, blue Pomeranian puppies could be a good fit.

These little animals actually belong to the Spitz family of dogs that include Elkhounds, Samoyeds, and Malamutes. Hundreds of years ago, Pomeranians looked more like their much larger cousins. They weighed around thirty pounds then, instead of the three to seven pounds you see today. They were favorites of the likes of Mozart, Michelangelo, Martin Luther, and Sir Isaac Newton. A Pom owned by England's Queen Victoria was the first ever entered into a dog show.

All Poms have big personalities. These are very intelligent, outgoing animals. They are loving, especially in the midst of family, and can adapt to all kinds of households. Early socialization is a must. Without it, you could end up with a shy, nervous animal that barks constantly. If you want to get some idea of what kind of personality your adult dog will have, ask the breeder if you can meet the parents.

These are tiny dogs. Some don't weigh over three pounds at full maturity. Occasionally there will be a litter that is slightly bigger. These usually make the best pets for households with small children. Poms don't grow much taller than a foot.

Poms are so small they can live comfortably almost anywhere. The dogs are fine in condos and apartments as long as you give them plenty of playful attention. Most Poms love their dog toys, but need to be introduced to new ones periodically to prevent boredom. These smart, playful animals also love to learn tricks. Poms are big show offs and enjoy every chance to impress your guests.

Their luxurious coats are one of the things that distinguish them from most other breeds. Poms are double coated with the outer fur rough and bristly and the under fur soft and silky. The neck ruffs and plumed tails are also characteristic of Poms. Regular brushing is a requirement if you own one of these dogs. Getting them used to the feel of a comb and brush while they are still very young is the best idea.

Pomeranians are hardier than a lot of other breeds. They have an average life expectancy of twelve to sixteen years. You need to request health clearances on the parents to make it less likely that your puppy will inherit certain diseases. Although generally healthy, Poms are prone to hip dysplasia, allergies, eye and dental problems, and epilepsy.

Poms are great little dogs that make excellent pets. They are loving, intelligent, and playful. If you are buying from a breeder though, making sure she is reputable and not running a puppy mill is critical.
