Tiny Teacup Pomeranians

There is such a large interest in these extra small pomeranians sometimes called Teacup Pomeranians.

1 to 2 lbs weight for a dog is very small.Tiny pups like these sometimes happen by accident but normally are not bred to this size.

Responsible breeders do not intentionally breed to this size.These poms are much harder to look after because of their size.You need to be a lot more gentler with them.

Most people who want a tiny pom, look for what they call toy pomeranians or teacup poms. They don't realise that this breed is already a toy breed! If bred to standard, they are already small enough.

In the United Kingdom, the standard weight is 4 - 4.5 lbs for males and 4.5 - 5.5 lbs for females. As you will notice, the females are unusually larger than the males. This is unique in the dog world. In the United States, the standard weight is between 3 and 7 lbs, but idealy it is between 4 and 6 lbs. There are breeders who breed this size dog. But not a lot.

You must take a chance when buying teacup pomeranians. You don't always know how big they will grow to. In other words, you may still end up with a standard pom anyway. These extra small dogs could cost you up to $4000.00 with no guarantee what you will end up with. Just remember, pomeranians are already toy dogs and are already tiny.
