Quick breed overview

The Pomeranian, the smallest of the German spitz-type dogs, was intentionally bred down to “toy” size in the nineteenth century. The Pomeranian is smart and loves attention, and it rapidly exchanges affection and will grow bonded to its owner. Pomeranians are incredibly quick for their size and should be watched if they are allowed to run free.
