How To Groom Your Pomeranian At Home

I'm sharing how I groom my Pomeranian Emma at home!
I'm not a professional groomer but I've been grooming my two Pomeranians at home since I got them. Here's how I like her groom her just as a pet not a show cut. Grooming your Pomeranian at home is not as hard as you think and with time and practice you can do it too!

i don’t have a pomeranian, i don’t even have a dog. why am i watching this 😂

[@Kingghidora201]

I don’t to

[@oleariiax9499]

I really want one!

[@shewangizawterfie9186]

Cause they are so cute!!!

[@lindafitak]

What a fully cooperative little dog! Mine would be climbing the walls! 😂

[@CB-vg1wq]

Hi Linda- I saw your post. Start short grooming sessions- start with just 5 minutes- combing and trimming her/his body with lots of treats/ praise so the dog finds the session rewarding. Do 5 minutes everyday for several days/weeks until the dog is relaxed. Then start grooming the head and add 2 minutes. You probably will have to take her to a professional groomer to do the rest. Over the next several weeks - you can get to 20 minutes. It takes patience and consistency. Good Luck!

[@mathildedorothea5032]

As a dog groomer, i really liked watching this! You only trimmed off what was needed and stayed clear of the undercoat. You brushed and combed the dog well, and you also clipped the nails, all whilst your dog stood nicely and was relaxed. Good job! :D Such a cute little girl Emma is :D

[@rc6304]

Hello groomer. I have a lavender pom that I am keeping for someone long term. She is bigger than most poms and has tons of undercoat and tons of the coarse top coat that is very long. Do i thin out the undercoat? The owner shaved her before she came here but i thick tjat looks awful.

[@rc6304]

Excuse typos. I think that shaving looks awful

[@dhammapadaretreat7132]

Such a well behaved dog. Thanks for sharing your tips !

[@Foreversummer930]

Tip: if she ever barks when you don't want to, let her bark, and when she stops, give her praise and a treat. I did get this from another source.

[@TimLee356]

do you mean throwing a shoe at the barking dog is not a good idea?

[@theslothgirl8994]

Mineral Tim 79 why would u do that!?

[@suhankaushik1016]

sir, instead when she barks call her name and when she stops barking and responds to your call treat her I am actually working as a volunteer with dog training school hence I know. Ur way might've correct for some dogs but some dogs might find it good to bark as they will get a treat after doing so.

[@JDsayslol]

this makes no sense... you need to make sure the dog knows barking is bad.

[@JDsayslol]

what seems to work best for barking for all of my dogs is to have one symbol, whether it be a finger pointed at them, a stern “NO BARK”, or for my youngest dog we got a muzzle (before you call it abuse we only had to use it TWICE for a minute each), now whenever he barks I say NO BARK and he stops, in the rare occasion he doesn’t I grab the muzzle and show it to him and he stops RIGHT AWAY. it’s not painful, he just knows exactly what it is and that it means to stop barking. do not reward your dog for barking. and don’t reward it for being silent.. this is bullshit. you need to have a consistent signal to let your dog know NOT to bark because it’s BAD

[@alyssa1153]

Honestly, I thought all Poms were nuts until I watched this. Emma is so sweet... My boy would never!! lol

As a professional groomer, I enjoyed how well you did and how much your adorable dog trusts you.❤ 😊

[@georgevilet7334]

Your Emma is the most tolerant Pom I have ever seen! I've had 6 male Poms in my life and I'd just like to share a few thoughts: be very careful that your Pom does not walk or jump off the table, don't take your eyes and hands off of them to make sure, always brush/comb before and after the bath, Pom fur mattes easily so you may have to brush more frequently depending on how thick the undercoat is, be careful to use warm and not hot water, not cold water, always use safety scissors with rounded tips (good job!), if your Pom has dark claws you cannot see the quick (the part of the claw that has blood in it) so it is important to only cut a little off the claw at a time, and if you do get bleeding, put pressure on the claw with a towel or napkin and have some styptic powder and Q-tips ready to apply to the claw to get it to stop bleeding, you may want to have eye wash handy to rinse their eyes because they have such an external eye and fur can stick to it and they can end up scratching their cornea, males need to have their penis fur trimmed with safety scissors, a metal comb is essential and I like a strong pin brush, good quality shampoo and conditioner (oatmeal is great for their skin), try not to get any water inside their ears because they have a tendency to get yeast infections in the ears from moisture. If you do get water in their ear, gently use a tissue to dab what you can out, and I very carefully use a Q-tip to wipe their external ear and go just a tiny bit into where the canal starts to remove any debris or wax buildup. You don't want to push the Q-tip in the ear much at all. If your Pom ends up shaking their head a lot, or incessantly trying to scratch their ear, they may have a yeast infection which requires topical medication from a doctor for about a week. The fur will get very greasy from this so it is best to keep their ears dry to avoid this. Any time you are grooming your dog is a good time to feel for ticks, lumps, asymmetry and investigate. I walk my Poms every day and do use a jacket on them in winter on very cold days. Don't forget to brush their teeth often! I don't use a blow dryer-I just towel them off well. They don't seem to like the noise and I worry about burning them with heat. I bathe them in the morning and let them run around the house all day to get really dry and brush them out once they naturally dry. Don't forget to give them lots of praise for cooperating. Many Poms don't like being groomed so it is important to introduce it when they are puppies and to take it slow and offer praise or small pieces of treats as rewards. If your dog has epilepsy you will want to keep their stress to a minimum and not spend so much time on grooming and just stick to the essentials-cleaning and combing. One Pom I had disliked being brushed so much that he would bite. My husband would have to hold him and I would brush him as best I could. He had fear based anxiety. Most of them dislike being brushed but tolerate it. Poms are wonderful little dogs and are so special. Thank you for helping other Pom owners.

[@whatthebleep2810]

I think this lady knows what she’s doing. Don’t need a lecture from some random stranger!

[@bobbicahill8068]

I don’t own a Pom but I will do that with my two schnauzer I allreadyy take good care of there coat and a bath once a mouth but I will take a lot of these tips in mind

[@laurierobertson3504]

Thank for all the great tips. I have 4 girls and these tips will come in handy.

[@andreatorresnegrete1826]

Just got a male Pom, thanks for the tips! Very helpful

Your dog is so well-behaved. Mine can't stop moving when I try to trim her fur or nails

[@gingerehrhardt843]

Your little lady has amazingly good manners. I can't even get a flea collar on my little guy.

[@dillonscott3941]

My experience with flea collars is mediocre at best anyway, and that's on short haired dogs! Bravecto on the other hand works great and you don't have to worry about a collar causing mats or anything! Your vet likely sells it, you have to have a prescription for it anyway.

[@shelleymessier1494]

Just a little tip I'm sure you already know and forgot but if you brush her out thoroughly first before anything in the whole process is much easier. My Pomeranian appreciates that because it doesn't pull her skin as much she told me LOL. Thank you for sharing he did a great job

[@tylerngo4894]

That is true!

[@bdlimea7018]

Great tip!

[@shaanbae6096]

Shelley Messier so brush the dog before the bath too?

[@AlyssaSmirnov]

Yes you can brush your dog before the bath too but if you already do regular brushing every couple of days, I haven’t noticed a difference

[@shaanbae6096]

Alyssa Smirnov ok 😌👍

[@lianalonge1984]

Emma is absolutely adorable and well-tempered. 🥰 You did a fantastic job grooming her.

[@dianejohanson98]

So cute. I love Poms. My 13 year old Pom passed away in April, but I can’t live without one. I miss my baby so much, but my new puppy will be here in 2 weeks. Can’t wait. I used to groom mine mysef too and learned by watching videos. Finally started taking him to the groomer when I couldn’t do it anymore. Don’t know if I’ll be grooming the new one yet. Great video. Your baby is so well mannered.

[@EfsunSaundersmakeuptemple]

oh she's like a little doll. so cute. she's one of the calmest dogs I have ever seen.

[@cameronmckenzie9047]

This is the cutest Pomeranian puppy I’ve ever seen 😍😍😍❤️❤️

[@tracywallace6714]

I love Emma. You did a really good job. The blow drying process is endless.

[@janieyork8990]

I enjoyed watching Emma being groomed. The groomer was so gentle and explained each step so carefully. I have a Pom, Daisy, who is now 1 year old. She has professionally groomed one time and I have tried to keep her trained myself so I found this video to be very informative!

[@NK-nkno]

She's so calm and relaxed. Such a cute little doggie. Can't wait to adopt one as well.

What a beautiful little girl you have there. She's so patient and trusting. You did a marvelous job on her, looks professional. My little Pom died this past June of '23 at 17 years old. My little girl loved her bath because I used the shampoo as a massaging agent, she'd almost fall asleep. I hope you keep up with your videos of Emma, she's so precious.

She looks great and she’s enjoying a treat after her torture...lol! Finished just in time before she totally lost her patience with me. Thank you again, you made me a very happy lady!
