Pomeranian Spitz

Pomeranian Spitzes, also called German Miniature Spitzes or Pomeranians, are small, decorative breed dogs that look like little fox cubs. The distinctive feature of these dogs is their lush and dense coat, which gives them elegance. The Pomeranian Spitz is a friendly and intelligent dog that gets along well with children and other animals.

The name of the breed was given according to the region from which these dogs originated (Pomerania, Central Europe). Spitz is a relatively old dog breed that was mentioned in German literature as early as the middle of the 15th century. The majority of Spitzes were bred by German breeders (with the exception of the small and dwarf breeds, which are the merit of British breeders). It is believed that the ancestors of the Pomeranian Spitz were working dogs of the Arctic region. Today, Pomeranians are classified as “toy” dogs because they are very small.

CHARACTER

The Pomeranian Spitz is a great companion, suitable for both a single person and a family. They are active, playful, friendly pets. They are very loyal to their family and love all members equally. They love the attention of their owners, willingly allow themselves to be petted, picked up or carried. But although the Pomeranian Spitz is a friendly dog, it can quickly become irritated, bark at strangers or other dogs, and become dominant. Socialization, training and responsible behaviour of the owner by drawing certain limits of permissible behaviour helps to avoid these vices early on.

APPEARANCE

Pomeranian Spitzes are classified as a toy dog breed. The body of the Pomeranian Spitz is square-shaped, the muzzle is pointed, resembling the muzzle of a fox and the ears are small and erect. The eyes are oval, alert, dark in colour. The tail is of medium length, grows high and is raised above the back. The coat of Pomeranian Spitz is double – the top layer is dense and long whereas the undercoat is short, very dense and soft. The coat is very fluffy, voluminous, giving the dog elegance. Lush coat on the shoulders and neck forms a “collar”, the tail and hind paws are covered with dense coat as well. Hair growing on the back and sides is shorter than on the other parts of the body.

HEALTH, CARE, TRAINING

Pomeranians are a relatively healthy breed of dogs, but certain health problems are possible. Some of the most common problems are: loose kneecaps, brittle teeth, eye diseases, low blood sugar, trachea diseases that can cause coughing. Although some health problems are hereditary, some of them can be caused by improper care: irrational diet, lack of hygiene and/or grooming, etc. The coat of Pomeranian Spitz requires responsible care: regular bathing, combing, especially during seasonal shedding, grooming every 1-2 months (it is advisable for a professional pet groomer to perform the procedures). Very dense combs are not suitable for combing, as they can damage the undercoat.
These are highly intelligent dogs, very receptive to training and able to learn various tricks. The most important thing is proper motivation and turning the training into a game.

Main tips how to take care of Pomeranian Spitz:

brush the coat few times per week
during coat changing time bath one time per week
visit grooming salon one time per month
