Pomeranians: So Much Personality!

One thing that I love about Pomeranians is there outgoing, and spunky personalities! They are so sassy and it’s easy to mistake them all as being females. Once you get past there pretty faces you find they are more than what meets the eye. They are very intelligent and are very fast learners. They make great companions to their masters but you have to make sure that you let them know who is boss because Pomeranians are the type of breed that will try to take control.

The “small dog syndrome” it what it is called when your dog thinks he is the master over you and is control. When this happens your pom might become aggressive and often will rebel against your orders and rules. Other than those few negative flaws they are absolutely wonderful. They always seem to have a mind of their own. When I talk to my pom its like he knows everything that I am saying to him and sometimes even talks back.

Another thing I learned is that they get very attached to their owners and are very affectionate and love attention. I see that in my dog a lot and it’s so funny because if you stop petting him he will tap you with his paw to let you know he wants you to keep going. And on the weekends when we don’t have to get up, if you sleep too late he will nudge you with his nose to let you know it’s time to get up to take him out because he is so use to us getting up early in the morning to go to work and he goes outside to use the bathroom. It is amazing how they pick up on routines like that and will let you know when you are off schedule! Another thing I love is how no matter how long you have been gone whether it was an hour or all day, when you come back in that house they make you feel so loved and lets you know how much they missed you. I wouldn’t trade my pom for anything!
