A bundle of joy with a big, brave heart

Gina Hartoog
The Pomeranian

 

Looking at a Pomeranian, you cannot help but say, “Ah, cute.” It is easy to see why this dog is number nine on the Kennel Union of Southern Africa’s list of most popular dog breeds. The typical features of the Pomeranian are his standoff double coat, the tail that is high set and turned over the back, and the profuse covering of long, spreading hair. His head and nose have a foxy outline – in short, he is a bundle of ‘fluff’.

The Pomeranian belongs to the Toy group of dogs. Dogs in this group are known as companion breeds who thrive on human affection and attention. Some Toy dogs are more energetic than others and enjoy interactive exercise with their people.

The Pom is a compact, active dog with an alert fox-like expression. He is intelligent and enjoys pleasing his owner.
