Pomeranians are one of the toy breeds, but they pack a lot of personality into those little frames. With an appearance like a stuffed toy lion, it is easy to see why they have been so popular for so long. Their intelligence makes them incredibly entertaining to train and great companions.

These inquisitive little pups make fantastic watch dogs, even if their size makes them bad guard dogs. Most of the time they will be content to play with you or lounge around with you after a long day. Moderate exercise is absolutely essential for this toy canine, but because of the small stature, long walks are not necessary. A nice 30-minute walk or some dedicated indoor play time is all that is required to keep them fit and healthy.
