Blue Pomeranian Puppies Make Great Companions For Any Size Family

By Christine Stone


Dog lovers can get opinionated when it comes to the best breeds. Some families always have large, energetic animals that can accompany them on camping and hiking trips. Other families, concerned for their safety, choose intimidating guard dogs. Then there are the families who swear by little bundles of fur that love to cuddle with them on the couch. If you are one of the tiny dog lovers, blue Pomeranian puppies could be a perfect fit.

Pomeranians belong to the Spitz dog family. They don't look like it, but Pomeranians, Samoyeds, Elkhounds, and Malamutes are directly related. Many years ago Poms were much bigger, sometimes weighing as much as thirty pounds. Today they can weigh as little as three. Mozart, Michelangelo, Sir Isaac Newton, and Martin Luther were all Pomeranian lovers. 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.

Poms are pretty healthy and hardy little dogs. They have average life spans of twelve to sixteen years. Whenever you are buying any purebred animal, you need to ask the breeder to supply you with health clearances. This will let you know which diseases your puppy's immediate ancestors were cleared of. Allergies, epilepsy, hip dysplasia, and dental and eye problems are the most common health concerns.

Poms are great pets that endear themselves to their families. This is an active, smart, and loving breed. Before you purchase one though, you need to make sure you are working with a reputable breeder and aren't giving your money to a puppy mill.
