Perhaps you are visiting your local animal shelter, looking to adopt a small dog. You stop by one cage because the dog in there couldn't get much smaller, and it is very cute. The dog has pointed ears, a foxy face, wide dark eyes and a profuse coat. The bark sounds more like a yap and can get high-pitched. Could this be a purebred dog? This very well could be a purebred toy Pomeranian.
The average toy Pomeranian will be about six to seven ponds and look like a cross between a fox cub and a cheerleader's pom-pom. They have naturally pointed ears, huge eyes and a pointed nose (although they can be blunted like a Chihuahua's in some individuals). They are covered in long, puffy hair in the recognized colors of red, sable, orange, cream and sable, black, white, chocolate and a mixture of brown and blue tones. Their coats are double layered and need daily grooming.
Toy Pomeranians look like sturdy little sled dogs with a proud head, high curling tail, profuse coat to keep out the bad weather and a blockish body. However, they are far more fragile than their looks suggest. Cats and even Chihuahuas are far more robust than toy Pomeranians. Reliable Pomeranian information books and websites are filled with instances of Pomeranians dying from falling off of a couch or being rolled on by a sleeping owner.
Toy Pomeranians are vain, highly intelligent and protective of whatever they like. If they bark and snap at strangers coming up to your door, take this as a compliment (in a way), as you are liked enough by your Pomeranian to be worthy of protection.
Grooming the dog daily is a soothing exercise not only for you, but the Pomeranian will love the attention. A good grooming every day will also make you aware of any early signs of health problems.
There is no such thing as a bad color on a Pomeranian type, unless you are serious about showing. Only some colors of the toy Pomeranian rainbow are allowed. But Pomeranians come in almost all colors dogs come in, whether recognized or not. Color makes no difference in health or personality (unlike with Cocker Spaniels, oddly enough, where Golden Cockers have a tendency to Rage Syndrome).
Pomeranians have never read the official Pomeranian information printed about them. This is a breed that, on the whole, is unpredictable but loves attention. They are generally curious, affectionate and do not need a lot of exercise.
Since most Pomeranians have health problems with their eyes, skin, heart and skeletons, only the healthiest should ever breed no matter how cute they look. They are better off with quiet adults rather than a family with young children.
