Blue Pomeranian Puppies Will Become Valuable Members Any Size Family

By Christine Stone


Many dog lovers are pretty picky when it comes to the breeds they want as family members. Some love big, sturdy canines who can accompany them on hiking and camping trips. Others are mostly concerned with protection and choose animals for their reputations as guard dogs. Still others prefer tiny, affectionate bundles of fur that love to cuddle. If the latter describes you, blue Pomeranian puppies fit the bill.

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.

These are intelligent, funny, and outgoing dogs who love their owners and can adapt to all kinds of families. It is necessary to socialize Poms early on, like all dogs. Without it, they can become nervous, shy, and bark continuously. It's a good idea to ask the breeder if you can meet the parents of the puppy you want. Their personalities will give you a good idea of what your puppy will grow into.

Poms are little animals. At full maturity, many of them tip the scales at only three pounds. There are sometimes litters with larger puppies, and these make good pets for households that include young children. Regardless of weight, the dogs will only reach about a foot in height.

Poms are small enough for condo or apartment living. The dogs don't need a backyard or long walks to wear them out. As long as you give them plenty of playtime inside they will be satisfied. Poms usually love dog toys. They are smart enough to get bored if you don't change the toys out though. These animals are especially good at tricks and love to show off any chance they get.

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.
