Pomeranians are known to become very attached to their families and sometimes one person specifically. If you are that person you can expect your Pomeranian to be your shadow.

Since Pomeranians become very attached they are also prone to separation anxiety and should not be left alone for long hours. If you are often away from home, a Pomeranian may not be the best fit.

I would not recommend a Pomeranian for a family with very young children. Pomeranians are very small and can often get injured by, a young child that is unaware.

Do Baby Doll Pomeranians Have Different Coats

Pomeranians have thick double coats of fur.

The inner coat called ground hair is made from a thick and dense layer of fur almost like wool. The outer layer which is called guard hair is much longer and harder in texture.

Even with these same building blocks, each dog’s coat can vary.

Some dogs have a thicker undercoat which in turn makes their outer hair stick out more, this gives a big and fluffy overall appearance.

Other dogs may have very long outer guard hair when compared to others.
