A member of the Spitz family, the Pomeranian (or “Pom Pom”)
is a small, toy-sized dog with a distinctive plumed tail and rich double coat. Intelligent
and active, the Pom Pom is very loyal and makes a wonderful companion dog with
the right training. Because they are so darn cute, many Pom Pom owners tend to
dote on this dog, which can lead to behavioral problems such as excessive
barking, separation anxiety and willfulness. With a pack-leader owner, the
Pomeranian is highly trainable and is highly prized for show competitions.
Due to their small size, Pomeranians will do fine in an
apartment and don’t require large yards. However, you should still walk your
Pomeranian regularly to make sure they get sufficient exercise.
While the Pomeranian is generally a healthy breed, it can
develop several health problems with a lack of attention to grooming and proper
diet. Skin irritation and tooth decay are common in Pomeranians and many
veterinarians recommend a high-quality that includes dry food to help keep the
gums in good condition. In
addition to nutritional support for a Pomeranain’s coat, The Pomeranian’s thick
double coat requires regular brushing, with regular eye and ear cleaning
also.
All of Evanger’s dry foods are made with small kibbles,
making it an ideal choice for a Pomeranian’s small mouth. Our Grain-Free Meat Lover’s Medley with
Rabbit contains probiotics for a healthy digestive system and Omega-3 and 6
to support the health of a Pomeranian’s thick, double coat. Try mixing the kibble
with our Classic Beef with Bacon
for an extra kick of protein and nutrients. This loaf style line is also ideal
for the small-mouthed Pom Pom.
