White Pomeranians Are In Demand

By Diane Foster


A Pomeranian is a toy dog of great charm; this breed is very popular. If you are interested in white Pomeranians, you should be aware that they are rare and hard to breed. Make sure the breeder is reputable, since there are people who are in the business for money rather than love of the animals. The true color is a result of careful selection, since just breeding two dogs of the same pale color doesn't work. As with any puppy, you should try to meet both parents to assess personality and quality.

The Pomeranian dog is very popular, which means the demand for them is high. Be careful not to deal with people who may only be in the business for the money. A reputable breeder will care about keeping up breed standards and giving their customers complete satisfaction.

The Pom was developed from Icelandic and Lapp Spitzes. These sled dogs were bred down in size in Pomerania, a country on the Baltic Sea that no longer exists. The region is now part of Germany and Poland. The breed was recognized by the Kennel Clubs in 1888.

People who know them say that they are wonderful dogs. Adjectives include intelligent, lively, inquisitive, active, playful, animated, spritely, extroverted, alert, vivacious, and bold. Did you hear about the Pom that saved its Labrador housemate from a bear? The ideal is 3 to 7 pounds, 6 or 7 inches high, with a fluffy coat, curly tail, and a bright, foxy face.

Their natural alertness makes them good alarm dogs, but they can be yappy without proper training. Their aggression is off-set easily with socialization; they should be introduced to many people and other animals when young and shown that it's OK to be friendly. They are hard to housebreak, since they are so small it's easy to miss their 'accidents', but adults are generally very good housedogs.

Getting a white dog is not easy. It is not merely a matter of breeding whites to whites, a practice which produces inferior dogs of many colors. A true 'white' should have no lemony tones; the most prized are 'ice' rather than 'ivory'. A puppy that appears colorless at birth may end up parti-colored as it ages.

A Pomeranian is such a good, cute, companionable dog that you will do better to choose on personality rather than color - unless you want to show competitively. Breeders of the most attractive whites say that they have had most success breeding 'wolf sables' with 'cream sables', two of the many color distinctions. Be careful not to buy from people who may have a 'puppy mill', where females are confined and bred too often. These poor animals have little freedom or human interaction; their plight should be of concern to all animal lovers.

Go online and look at the pictures of these amazingly beautiful animals. Their thick coats (seasonal shedding and lots of it, regular brushing required), 'I'm the boss!' attitude (teach them to respect you and they will, with all the love intact), and boundless energy makes them irresistible. They are truly wonderful dogs for anyone who is willing to train them (and they are biddable), socialize them, and groom then regularly.
