Do they bark a lot Becky?

[@Linaskye143]

Poms ARE INCREDIBLY SMART. One time, my older Pom decided he wanted a very specific toy that was not in his toy basket but instead was in his daddy’s “man cave”. I said, “The Wubba’s in Daddy’s office if you want it. Go upstairs and get it”. I couldn’t believe it when he ran upstairs, got the toy, and dropped it at my feet! I told him to go to the kitchen and get me a beer then, but he looked at the kitchen and then back at me, like, “mommy, I don’t have thumbs. I can’t do that.”

[@PetManiaOfficial]

Haha amazing! 😂❤️

[@dothejive]

My pom Luna knows all her toys. She can identify 5 different toys. They are very smart!

[@Jace28142]

My daughter and I have a 19 month Pom and are obsessed with her. Indica brings nothing but love and joy to our lives. We love her so much that when a Rescue Shelter near us posted that a nine year old male Pom needs a new home because his Human passed away we jumped on it. We’ve had Patch for 10 days and he fits in perfect. I love their intelligence and their smiles. You can’t stay mad at these bundles of joy.

[@PetManiaOfficial]

That’s a cute story! ❤️

I would have to disagree with being healthy mine developed meningitis and now has heart murmur a predisposed condition with poms. But lovely dogs ❤

[@LLewis-vu9qf]

I absolutely love Pomeranians. I think they are highly underrated. Too many pom owners don't bother to train their pom beyond housebreaking and maybe some obedience. But these dogs can do more. I trained my previous pomeranian in agility and he really seemed to enjoy it. He also learned several tricks, liked to play 'find it' and was starting to learn urban herding (rolling large balls into a specific area on cue). My current pom is being introduced to agility obstacles but because of my physical limitations, he won't have a chance to go through an agility course. They do like to bark, that much is true. I also never found them to be very accepting of other animals though. In fact, they don't seem to realize how small they are and will not back down from a fight with a larger dog. They are wonderful companion dogs; are perfectly capable of long walks, with proper conditioning. They are intolerant of heat and humidity so be careful with them in hot weather.

[@PetManiaOfficial]

Amazing advice! Thank you for sharing this tips with us! 😍

[@LLewis-vu9qf]

@Polina B. G. -- believe it or not, but Pom experts do not advocate shaving a Pom's coat in an effort to keep the dog cool in hot weather. You can trim the length of the fur (no shaving!) but I really don't know if that will serve the desired purpose. What I do (and summers where I live are also hot and humid) is comb/brush my dog's coat more often to clear out dead undercoat. That allows air to circulate and helps regulate body temperature. Also be sure to trim the fur growth between the paw pads. Dogs sweat through their pads -- not a very good design IMO.🙄🐾🐾 But the best solution is to keep a pom in an air conditioned environment during hot, sunny parts of the day. If that's not possible, in addition to the grooming/paw pad trimming, exercise your dog during the coolest parts of the day: very early and after the sun sets. If none of these are possible, maybe a pom isn't the best choice of pet.

[@yolandabrinkman2653]

I live in the tropics of Australia and had one of the most gorgeous teacup variety pomeranian with personality plus. She walked 3kms every morning and evening. Such energy. I received more condolence cards for Niña than my mother! I never cut her hair despite living in 35⁰C all year round with very high humidity. However what I did do is brush her daily and on brushing the molted hair would just come out. Niña loved the moment. For such a tiny dog, 1.5kilos, she certainly occupied a lot of space! Miss her dreadfully. And yes, she had a voice on her, and I would shush her and say "Baby is asleep". My daughter's two British Bull Mastiffs were in total awe of her. And she in total control of them.

I've had a pomeranian since 2008 I see no con for me but I'm an old guy with no children. I have two pomeranians now and am getting another one in April 2022 when the puppy due in February. Because they live so long I've made provisions for their care in the event of my death. My poms were all easy to house break my first one almost came house broken. Great dog's love um.

Something a lot of people don’t know is that Poms are one of the small breeds that can have their gallbladder go bad, usually around age five and up. This is life threatening, and the surgery doesn’t have the best outcomes sometimes. Our Pom had to have emergency gallbladder removal. She was five. She’s now eight and a wonderful little love, but it was EXTREMELY scary to deal with (and expensive, at over 5,000 bucks).

[@PetManiaOfficial]

Thank you for sharing this with us! It will be useful to other pom parents as well. ❤️

[@thetruecobra]

How do you prevent it from happening to a pom? I have a 2month and 1 week mix pom puppy

[@Linaskye143]

@@thetruecobra from what I understand, they don’t always KNOW why it happens. However, one thing to always keep in mind is that Poms are tiny, so they do not need a lot of food or calories or fat. Whatever food you give them should be strictly measured, and it shouldn’t have a lot of junky fillers. Snacks and treats should be very small and should be as low fat as possible. Occasionally we give Mia milk bones or other junk, but usually she’ll only have small pieces of freeze dried salmon (good cholesterol/fats versus other proteins) or blueberries as treats. Also, and it kills me to say this, but no Puppaccinos/whipped cream/ice cream.

[@janajankova2799]

One of my dogs (a kleinspitz) broke out and escaped one day and while we were going crazy looking for him, my pomeranian brought him back, from a mile away probably, herding and barking at him. Love my Pikachu the pom. Amazing breed.

It took us a long time to potty train our Pom to go outside but now she knows she’ll beg and beg to go outside when she needs it. She also randomly learnt to go get a toy even tho we never taught it her. She was getting too fussy around me and wanted some space so I just told her to get a toy expecting nothing from it. When I said that she turned around scanned the room for a toy and ran and got one. I was amazed. They really are smarter than you think

[@pjk1714]

Socialization is the key and this breed also includes throw backs which carry the spitz gene and grow up to 20 lbs. They do have growth issues with joints and ligaments, not always developing at the same rate which can be costly without insurance. They are like having a three year old. They follow long sentences, instructions and pickup on conversation. They also recognize who is alpha and their true caregiver reacting in order. Grooming has been overlooked. They need daily brushing with the right tool being double coated. Treating with conditioning oils to avoid matting. They don't all have the same coat so you must gauge. Shaving the undercoat isn't an option. It never grows back properly and requires more attention. It also makes cool or warm depending on season. Great breed.

The so called ‘cons’ are exactly why I like them so much, you have to put in effort with them. In my opinion, there’s no point having a dog if they don’t keep you on your toes.

Looks like eye booger infection. Common when you don’t clean the eyes often. I also bathe my Pom every 2 weeks, the males easily piss on themselves since their legs are so short off the ground. Usually the front legs get hosed. Than you have to brush and trim daily. Not a low maintenance breed but one of the most lovable.
