These early spitz type dogs were used to work as guard and sledge animals,however
the smallest were kept as companions.At this stage of development,the breed
weighed 30 lbs and were colored white,black or cream. Pictured below is a painting of Queen Charlotte's Pomeranians. However it was not until Queen Victoria's reign that the Pomeranian became
one of the most popular toy breeds. In 1888 Queen Victoria travelled to Florence, Italy and found a breed of dog
called " Volpinos ". These dogs resembled the descendents of Queen Charlotte's (her grandmother's)
"Poms", but were much smaller, weighing around 5 kilos. Queen fell in love with these delightful little dogs, a love affair that was
to last thoughout her life. She brought home some of these dogs and called them
"Toy Pomeranians". After 1915 the breed became known as the Pomeranian with the prefix "toy"
being dropped completely. The picture below depicts a painting of "Marco on the Queen's Breakfast
Table", by Charles Burton Barber, 1893. Queen Victoria at one time had 35 of the breed in the royal kennels. In 1891
she showed six of the dogs at Cruft’s - Fluffy, Nino, Mino, Beppo, Gilda
and Lulu. A Pomeranian called Turi often accompanied the Queen on her carriage drives
in the last years of her life and was at her side when she died. Many famous people have fallen under the spell of this delightful little dog,
including Mozart. More recently we have seen Fran Drescher's Pomeranian "Chester"
making an appearance in "The Nanny".Fran Drescher's newest Pomeranian - Esther
Drescher. Sharon Osbourne recetly lost her belowed Pomeranian, Minnie and of
late we have all seen Nicole Richie's Pomeranian - Foxxy Cleopatra gracing
the tabloids.The Rap Star P Diddy or Sean Combes has purchased 4 Pomeranians
from Dochlaggie Pomeranians. Pictured below Kim Porter, Sean Comes [ P Diddy /Puff Daddy] walking there
Dochlaggie Pomeranians . GENERAL APPEARANCE:The Pomeranian is a small ,compact ,dainty
dog .He displays great glamour with his crowning glory- a dense ,double coat
,made up of long, harsh,standoff guard hairs and a soft woolly undercoat. The head with a short fine muzzle,medium sized almond shaped eyes, the tiniest
of pricked ears and an intelligent sweet expression add to the breed's appeal.
He has a short coupled solid body,fine bone,short neck,neat cat-like feet.The
Pomeranian should move soundly with plenty of style. There are no such things as miniature, toy or teacup Pomeranians. A reputable,
registered breeder does not describe their puppy's by these terms.Beware of
any "breeder" advertising Pomeranians puppies by any of these terms.You can
be sure that anyone who tells you they have teacup Pomeranians, miniature Pomeranians,
or Toy Pomeranians for sale is not a reputable Breeder. My advice is to always
purchase from a reputable breeder, so I would look for your new family member
elsewhere. Pomeranians excel at obedience with many Pomeranians over the years obtaining
obedience titles. Pomeranians are very loyal and loving towards their family. Pomeranians can
be "yappy" if allowed to do so. Like human children , well brought up Pomeranians are obedient and a joy to
live with. POMERANIANS ARE SUITABLE : For most situations, Small Homes,
Large Homes, Apartments. Flat dwellers will find that a Pomeranian adapts well
to apartment living. A Pomeranian is happy to snooze or play with toys while their human family
are away during the day. Owing to the diminutive size and high energy level the Pomeranian is not recommended
for families with young children. Pomeranians make loyal , loving and very intelligent companions for the elderly. More Information regarding this delightful Breed is available on our site Pomeranian
