We Salute: the Pomeranian!



Fun Facts about this tiny dog, with a big history:

The Pomeranian's ancestors originated in Greenland and Lapland where they were used as sled dogs!(Yes they were a lot bigger, about 20 pounds bigger than today) They were then taken to Europe in Pomerania where breeders focused on improving thier coats and breeding them to be more suitable for city living. But if you love how they fit perfectly in your lap, you owe your thanks to the English.

Characteristics:

The Pomeranian makes a great friend and watchdog because of its alertness and intelligence. But beware, this breed is known for its feistiness and at times being stubborn. This breed definetely needs a lot of love and attention.

Pomeranian Vocabulary:

Balanced Pomeranian- The head and legs are in porportion to the body.
