Toy Pomeranians
Many people are under the impression that there are
pomeranians and then there are toy pomeranians but do not
realize that they are one of the same. Meaning, there is
no need to look for a toy pomeranian as this breed is already a
toy breed.
Very tiny poms that weigh 1
and 2 lbs 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 very tiny pom, look for what they
call Teacup
Pomeranians or toy poms. And as I said before the
pomeranian 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 some breeders who breed this size pom. But not a
lot. You are taking a chance when buying these extra
small pomeranians. You don't always know how big they will grow
to. In other words, you may still end up with a standard toy
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.
