🐾 The Pomeranian Breed
Complete Guide to the Mini Bearface Pomeranian
Welcome to Pomeranian Residence, where passion and knowledge come together to breed healthy, beautiful, and loving Pomeranians. This page offers everything you need to know about the breed — from appearance and character to coat care, nutrition, and responsible ownership.
✨ Breed Characteristics
The Pomeranian (also known as the Zwergspitz or Dwarf Spitz) is a small, intelligent, and confident companion.
Despite their size, they have the heart of a big dog — lively, alert, and loyal.
Main breed features:
- Head: wedge-shaped with small, upright ears and a short muzzle.
- Body: compact and balanced, giving an elegant appearance.
- Coat: thick double coat with a soft underlayer and glossy outer coat.
- Tail: carried high and curled over the back.
- Expression: intelligent, cheerful, and full of character.
Their confident stance and playful energy make Pomeranians truly irresistible companions.
🎨 Color Variations
Pomeranians come in a variety of stunning shades, including: Orange, Cream, Cream Sable, Black & Tan, White, Wolf Gray, Merle, and Parti Color. Each color gives the dog a unique look — no two are ever the same.
At Pomeranian Residence, we specialize in the Bearface type with thick, fluffy coats and compact proportions.
Our lines include Orange Sable, Cream, and Merle Bearface Pomeranians.

📏 Size & Weight
According to the breed standard, the average shoulder height of a Pomeranian is 21 cm, with a small margin of 3 cm up or down.
Weight typically ranges between 1.5 and 4 kg, depending on body structure and gender.
Most of our Mini Bearface Pomeranians remain between 18 and 21 cm, with a balanced build that ensures both beauty and health.

🧴 Coat Care & Grooming
When your Pomeranian puppy leaves for its new home, it already has a soft, fluffy coat.
Proper coat care is vital for both appearance and wellbeing.
- Brush your Pomeranian 2–3 times per week to prevent tangles and matting.
- Use a gentle brush suitable for double-coated breeds.
- Trim the hair around the feet if necessary.
- Bathe only once every 3–4 weeks with a mild puppy shampoo and conditioner.
Brushing removes loose hairs, stimulates blood circulation, and keeps the coat shiny and healthy.

🧠 Behavior & Training
The Pomeranian is intelligent, curious, and eager to please — but also confident and a bit stubborn.
Training should always be positive and consistent.
- Reward good behavior with praise or a small treat
- Keep training sessions short and varied to hold their attention.
- Never shout — a firm “No” in a calm tone is enough.
- Early socialization is key: expose your puppy to new sounds, people, and other dogs.
Pomeranians are naturally alert and will bark to warn of strangers, but with good training, they quickly learn when it’s appropriate.
🚾 House Training
Most of our puppies are already familiar with puppy pads before leaving our home. When your puppy arrives, maintain a clear daily routine and praise them whenever they use the correct spot. Gradually introduce outdoor potty breaks after meals and naps. Patience and consistency are crucial — never punish mistakes. With time, your Pomeranian will become perfectly house-trained.
🍽️ Nutrition & Feeding
A Pomeranian puppy grows rapidly during the first six months, so proper nutrition is essential. We recommend high-quality, small-breed dog food designed for growth and vitality.
Key feeding tips:
- Provide clean water at all times.
- Avoid frequent changes of food.
- Feed small portions several times a day.
- Never feed human foods such as sausage, bread, sweets, cheese, or salty snacks.
As a general guide:
- Up to 4 months → 4 meals per day
- 4 to 12 months → 3 meals per day
- After 1 year → 2 meals per day
At Pomeranian Residence, we use premium nutrition and provide every new owner with personal feeding advice.
💖 Health & Craniofacial Ratio (CFR)
The Craniofacial Ratio (CFR) measures the proportion between the skull and muzzle. A healthy CFR helps prevent breathing issues and dental problems. We carefully measure the CFR of all our dogs — none of our breeding Pomeranians fall within the “red zone” of risk. This guarantees the correct Bearface structure without compromising the dog’s health.
🌍 Responsible Puppy Purchase
Choosing a puppy from a trusted breeder is crucial. Puppies from unverified sources (e.g. one-time litters or online sellers) often lack proper socialization, health checks, or official documentation.
At Pomeranian Residence, every puppy is:
- Raised in a home environment
- Fully vaccinated and microchipped
- Health-checked by a certified veterinarian
- Socialized before leaving at a minimum of 8 weeks
We also warn against illegal imports disguised as EU puppies. Only pups with valid EU Rabies Titer Tests and documents from recognized laboratories can legally enter the EU.
🐶 Why Insure Your Pomeranian?
Pomeranians are small but can have special medical needs such as dental care or patella issues. With a pet insurance plan, you’re protected from unexpected veterinary costs. Through our partner FIGO, each puppy leaves with 1 month of free pet insurance, giving you peace of mind right from the start.

WEIGHT OF POMERANIAN
The normal weight ranges between 1.5 and 4 kilograms, depending on the size of the dog. Pomeranians generally live between 12 and 15 years!
While they are excellent watchdogs, they are not aggressive. These dogs are not built for super long walks but enjoy short strolls. Pomeranians are very affectionate, attached to their owner and family. They are also very observant and curious, tending to bark when alarmed.
COAT CARE OF THE POMERANIAN
When the puppy is old enough to leave the nest, it already has a considerable coat. The puppy should be taught to be groomed. During the training period, the puppy should be combed daily. Start with just a few minutes at first. Once the puppies get used to it, they often enjoy being groomed. The coat of a Dwarf Spitz consists of two layers: short, dense undercoat and long, straight guard hairs. The neck, shoulders, and the back of the front and hind legs are thick, dense, and long-haired. The face is velvety!
COMBING & BRUSHING
The coat of the Pomeranian must be well taken care of. Comb thoroughly 2 to 3 times a week to prevent hair from tangling or matting. Small knots can often form at the beginning of the coat and need to be combed out. The hair between the toes should be trimmed if it bothers the dog. Combing and brushing not only remove dirt from the coat but also massage the skin. This promotes the dog's blood circulation, keeping the coat in excellent condition. The long hairs on the front legs should be combed gently. Dwarf Spitz dogs are brushed against the grain. Start at the head, and the neck hairs behind the ears should be brushed forward. Hold the hair flat with your hand and proceed layer by layer. Due to the long, thick, and soft coat, the Pomeranian needs proper care to prevent mats and dirt.
POMERANIAN SHAMPOO
The coat should not be washed too often (2 times a month). Washing too frequently makes the hair soft and strips the skin of natural oils, potentially causing the coat to become dry and dull. If the Pomeranian needs to be washed, always use a special puppy or dog shampoo with a conditioner to make combing easier.
The puppy can only go outside again when completely dry. The small ears also need regular cleaning. Knots often form behind the ears and require extra attention. Brush the tail in the direction of hair growth.
DENTAL CARE OF THE POMERANIAN
Dental care is a crucial aspect of Pomeranian care. Like many small breeds, they are prone to plaque, and issues can arise during the teething process. Regularly check their teeth. A good dry kibble is better for removing tartar than wet food. Like many small dog breeds, Pomeranians quickly develop plaque, which, if not removed, turns into tartar. It is essential to care for their teeth, ideally brushing them once a week or applying a tooth gel in the evening. The tooth gel is easy to apply before bedtime. Apply about 1 cm of gel on your finger and spread it on the outside of the teeth. The gel can then work overnight, preventing tartar and plaque. This solution is ideal for pups that resist having their teeth brushed.
TRAINING OF THE POMERANIAN
The characteristics of Pomeranians are lively, affectionate, and highly trainable. Pomeranians are very affectionate and enjoy playing with their owner. It is essential to brush the Pomeranian from a young age to get them used to it. They are not quick to accept strangers, but Pomeranians are not an aggressive breed. They are excellent watchdogs for their owner.
HOUSE TRAINING OF POMERANIAN
Pomeranians are eager to learn but also can be independent and self-assured. Therefore, early puppy training is essential. Pomeranian training should be based on rewards rather than punishment. Rewarding can be done with a small dog treat or simply by saying in a very high voice that what the Pomeranian did was excellent. Build obedience training slowly. If he is new to the house, he must first listen and respond to his new name. Then slowly make the exercises more challenging. Do not make the exercises too long; they can be tiring for the Pomeranian. Also, keep the exercises varied. Pomeranians quickly think they know everything. If correction is necessary, say "NO" in a low voice and show with body language that you are not pleased. Pomeranians have excellent hearing, so shouting is unnecessary. The premise here is that the Pomeranian makes no mistakes; the owner has not explained it correctly.
It is best to be consistent with a puppy. If you have just become the new owner of a puppy, it may whine at night. This is common but not always the case. You can leave a night light on or put a cuddle toy in the crate. There should always be a bowl of water in the crate for the puppy to drink.
The Dwarf Spitz is curious and observant of your actions. A Dwarf Spitz is very intelligent and sensitive to your mood in both sad and happy times. They can adapt well to circumstances, as long as they are close to their owner, they are fine. A typical characteristic of the Dwarf Spitz is their curiosity. They want to explore everything. The Dwarf Spitz is a natural watchdog and will always make noise, but with proper training, this can be controlled. A Dwarf Spitz will always bark if it notices something strange. They are not runners, and they will not lose sight of you during a walk. It is best to do a puppy training with the pup. This way, the pup also comes into contact with other dogs. If you want to buy a Dwarf Spitz, it is essential to know if the character fits your family.
FEEDING OF THE POMERANIAN:
As a proud owner of a Pomeranian puppy, you want to ensure that he receives all the nutrients needed for healthy development. But what should you consider when choosing the right food?
First and foremost, it's essential to understand that a Pomeranian puppy experiences its most significant growth in the first six months of its life. This critical period requires special care and attention, especially in terms of nutrition. The right nutrition is the foundation for your furry friend's good health and well-being!
A varied diet consisting of high-quality nutrients is crucial. It is strongly discouraged to switch food frequently as this can lead to digestive problems and allergies. Therefore, carefully choose a diet that suits your puppy's needs and stick to it throughout its life. You can assess the quality of the chosen food based on your puppy's health. Look for signs of well-being, such as clear eyes, a shiny coat, and regular bowel movements. A healthy puppy is active and lively, without itching or other discomforts.
Always ensure that clean water is available for your puppy, especially when feeding dry food. Hydration is essential for good health and digestion.
It is also important to gradually transition to a new diet if necessary to avoid potential stomach upset. Let your puppy get used to its new environment and food before making significant changes.
It is crucial to avoid dried treats and bones while feeding, given the risk of choking on shards and residues. Opt instead for food that is good for the teeth, such as raw beef (frozen for at least 3 days) and bones. Limit the amount of raw vegetables such as carrots, peppers, pumpkins, and cucumbers.
It is also wise not to feed your pet human food, such as sausage, bread, pastries, spices, salt, sweets, fat, cabbage, radishes, tomatoes, ice cream, nuts, seeds, cheese with more than 17% fat. This can be harmful to your Pomeranian's small stomach.
Regarding the number of meals: after 3-4 months, it is recommended to feed four times a day. From 4 months to a year, you can switch to feeding three times a day. After a year, you can transition to feeding twice a day. By providing your Pomeranian puppy with a balanced diet and taking good care of him, you are laying the foundation for a long and happy life together. Stay attentive to his needs and enjoy the special bond you will build with him!
