Pomeranian Dogs Make Great Family Pets
The Pomeranian is part of the AKC Toy Group and while it was shown in the miscellaneous classification of the American Kennel Club from 1892 it gained its regular classification from 1900. The standard height for this dog is between seven and 12 inches and weight is between three and seven pounds. With the right care, your Pomeranian can live to be 15 years old.
A very loyal breed, Pomeranian dogs are intelligent as well as eager to learn. However, they can also be very bold, willful and on occasions temperamental. When trained with a kind but firm hand, Pomeranians are quick to learn and obedient pets.
The Pomeranian is favorably suited for the show ring as well as a pet due to it’s affectionate nature and docile temper. They are alert, curious and independent. They are great for apartments since they do not need a yard.
