Pomeranian Dog
The Pomeranian (often known as a Pom) is a breed of dog of the Spitz type that is named for the Pomerania region in north-west Poland and north-east Germany in Central Europe. Classed as a toy dog breed because of its small size, the Pomeranian is descended from larger Spitz-type dogs, specifically the German Spitz. It has been determined by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale to be part of the German Spitz breed; and in many countries, they are known as the Zwergspitz ("Dwarf Spitz"). The breed has been made popular by a number of royal owners since the 18th century.

More rarely, the breed can have Alopecia X, a skin condition colloquially known as ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
