Pomeranian



The Pomeranian is a happy, active little dog that will adapt cheerfully to life in a one-room apartment or a spacious dwelling, revelling in the role of lap dog or enjoying walks with its owner. Alternatively, it will amuse itself adequately in a yard. It makes a faithful and devoted companion.

SizeWeight: Dogs: 4 – 4 1/2 lbs. (1.8 – 2 kg); Bitches: 4 1/2 – 5 1/2 lbs. (2.2 – 5 kg)

Coat and Colour
There should be two coats, an under and an outer coat; the first a soft, fluffy undercoat, and the other a long, perfectly straight and glistening coat covering the whole body, being very abundant around the neck and forepart of the shoulders and chest where it should form a frill of profuse, standing-off, straight hair extending over the shoulders. The hindquarters should be clad with long hair or feathering from top of rump to the hocks. The texture of the guard hairs must be harsh to the touch.
