- In this video, we discuss 5 common mistakes that new pomeranian owners make so that new Pomeranian owners and potential pomeranian owners can learn how to better take care of their Pomeranians. These are the lessons that we had to learn the hard way when there weren't any videos and resources like this back then, and we're sharing with you now so you don't have to make the same mistakes that we did - so please don't skip it!
This video is not meant to shame or critize any Pom owners out there as we also made a lot of the mistakes mentioned in this video when we first had our Pomeranians. Don't feel bad if you make some of these mistakes! No one is perfect and no one knows everything the first time around! There's ZERO judgement in our channel! We're only coming from the place of sharing our experience, and trying our best to uplift the Pomeranian community and help other Pomeranian owners navigate this tough but rewarding job of being the "parents" of these fluffy dogs! We made all these mistakes so that you don't have to! ❤️

I just want to let you know that you shouldn't feel that you need to add captions because of your accent, it should be for viewers who are hearing impaired. You are amazing for being mullti-lingual and your videos are very informative and your poms are super cute . I have 2 poms atm, and another one coming soon so these videos are super helpful even though I have poms already.
Aww thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words! We really appreciate it!! ♥♥
yeah :) im chinese and my mom used to speak like this so its easy for me to understand😊
There is nothing wrong with accents, that doesn’t mean those who can’t understand someone with an accent is also wrong too.
As someone whose neurodivergent, it’s very difficult for me to distinguish what’s being said if I don’t have captions/subtitles or I ask for them to repeat themselves. It’s not that I want to not understand seining with an accent, I physically CANT. Please don’t make us feel bad for something we are slo just as incapable of doing as those with hearing impairments.
This video was extremely helpful and thank you for making it, Cece!
@@CeceFamilyYou don't have to be afraid of ur accent in fact I really love your accent if people don't like ur accent don't mind them live ur life how you want to
@@CeceFamily I will let you know I appreciate the captions as s me one with auditory processing disorder!
Active Pomeranians love to run around, which makes it extremely important to keep them out of danger. Kitchens offer dangers to puppies when a puppy parent cooks. A cook could spill something on a puppy or trip and fall. Puppies, like children, have to be protected when they are young because they don't yet sense danger.
Totally agree, Kathryn!
My neighbour pom died of uterus bloat
Wow common sense! 😮

As a groomer and a pom owner, I just wanted to say thank you! Fantastic information. Beautifully put together!
Thank you so much, Emily! ❤️
I have learned so very much from you and appreciate your knowledge of poms and how you share so cheerfully. My little Pom, Bitsy, is now 4 years old and living a happy and healthy life because of your wonderful advice!! Thank you! Hope you are ever so happy with your certification! Your Pom’s are delightful to watch.
Great vid! We recently lost our 12 year old Pom to tracheal collapse. We adopted him at approximately six years of age and never used a collar on him. These guys really have weak tracheas. One thing that I would have also included is being careful about keeping their teeth clean. Poms frequently suffer form gum disease and this leads to heart problems. Our Pom arrived at our house with no teeth. He developed a leaky heart valve within three years of us adopting him and he saw a cardiologist for the rest of his life.
Yes they have terrible teeth. You need to start as early as you can with getting them used to dental care. For tiny dogs they are a lot of work. But they’re definitely worth it!!
This is the best pomeranian introduction video I've seen, you summed up alot of common issues or quirks of the breed really well! Definitely a video new owners should watch!
Congratulations on your certification too! I think you'll be a great trainer, and this channel will be a big asset for you as well 🙂
Yes I agree 👍💖
Aww thank you so much, Adam! Haha yes I definitely think so too - I got the certificate quite a while ago but I just couldn't find the time to tell about my training services on my channel until now and won't be able to run classes until next year either. There are so many things I wanna do to create a positive impact on the dog owner community yet so little time. Well if only I had 48 hours a day 😂😂😂
@@CeceFamily I think Boo and Cece will be great ambassadors for mom's training business, especially if Boo is wearing his very handsome bow tie! I can't help but smile and laugh when I see him wearing that 😆
It'll be fun to see where things go from here! I wish you the best of luck! I run a business of my own too, so I know it can be challenging, especially at the beginning, but it's definitely worth it! I think you'll do great 👍
Im getting a pomeranian today so your videos really help me, since im worried how i should treat them right. im watching all your videos, thank you. i learned many things which i didnt even consider!
Such a beautiful explanation, thank you. 💞
Glad to see you didn’t let the haters get to you
I just love how you are so devoted and carring to animals. I am like you as far as always having a connection to animals. Animals are always drawn in to me all of my life and I am sure its been that way for you. Your video was beautiful.
I 100% agree,thank you so much for this video.
Very nice and helpful video. Keep it going! 🤍
Thanks for these tips...
Thanks for your advice
Wonderful video! So happy you are providing much needed information🥰
Thank you so much as always for your wonderful support, Maria! 🥰
I’m getting a 1 year old Pom later this week and I’m a first time dog owner, this video was super helpful and I learnt some new things! Definitely following and watching more of your videos ☺️
Thank you for all your great advice ❤❤
So glad you found our video helpful! ❤️
I'll get a pom someday, thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you! All these things that you've learned will surely help you when the time comes! ❤️
Great video ❤ my rescue Pom is 3 and it's important to me to keep learning things that help me give him a healthy, happy, safe, loving life. TY ❤😊🐶
Bravo you summarized all the important points. I will keep following you from now on 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you so much! ❤️
Great video! Congratulations on getting your trainer certification! I wish I did live in NYC so I could take your class but I'm sure you will have lots of good clients! 💕🐶
Aww thank you so much! 💕💕
thanks a LOT for the useful information and to be COMPLETELY honest i did do and will really really LOVE pomeranians
Wonderful/informative vid. It helps reinforce…and congrats! Jasy & I ❤ you guys!
We’re so thankful for your support over the years! ❤️ Sending lots of virtual pets to Jasy!
Thank you! We are going to adopt a Pomeranian and your video is so useful!
We want a pomeranian someday, so your channel is an excellent resource (especially since we've never had a dog before)! Thank you so much :)
Thank you, Victoria! Do tell us when it's finally time for you to get your Pomeranian! 💕
I've watched your videos since I got my christmas pom last year. I've learned a lot, and am still learning. Im happy to say I have not made any of those mistakes! We have gates with a door to block off the kitchen, stairs and a gate to prevent running outside. Always used a harness, brush out and groom a couple times a week, and socializing him from the very beginning
!
That's AWESOME!! He's so lucky to have you!!
I bought my first pomeranian 6 months ago and we’re going to have a second one. This video is very helpful. Thank you so much.
I love your videos on Poms!!! They help me a lot being I have 2 of them❤
As a Pom owner myself I totally agree with the harness and early socialization/training early on. Because we did this our pom is super friendly and social everywhere we go with him. He loves meeting new people and dogs which is great because he is adorable! We do shave ours though due to us not always being able to brush him off often. We did leave his hair long for the first several years before we started consistently shaving him. His groomer and I are very surprised that his hair has not grown back weird or uneven yet. He’s 10 years old now and only started consistently shaving him about 4-5 years ago.
Thank you, beautiful, for the advice!
Thank you so much for making these videos, I’ve recently had to help take care of and groom my grandparents Pom and I’m a hound person😅
You videos have been very helpful and informative.
Aww thank you! And how nice of you to try to learn all these things for your grandparents’ Pom 🤍
Thank you!!
We have 2 poms! Love pomeranians!
I wish I lived in NY so that you could babysit my babies!
You are sooo great🥰
Aww thank you so much, Tina!! ❤️
Thank you for this video.
❤️
Love ur video ❤ i have learned alot from ur videos and I did do all these things like u said.
Aww thank you so much! Your Pommie looks so cool in your profile photo! ❤️ I think he/she knows how to pose - must be a natural haha!
Very helpfull thank you ❤
Thank you, Melissa! ❤️
I try to socialize my almost 10 month Pom, but I’m so fearful that another dog may be aggressive and hurt her. She’s so tiny and my former fur baby (Pom) was mauled to death by a Rottweiler. I’m so VERY protective of her no matter the size of the dog.
I’m so so sorry to hear that! It must have been a very traumatizing experience for you! 🥺 I would have been traumatized for life if I were you too so I totally understand where you’re coming from ❤️ Maybe try to socialize your Pom with some of the dogs that you personally know and trust (such as your friend and family’s dogs) of the same size first? I’m sure if the socialization is with familiar dogs with good temperament of the same size, and especially when it’s supervised closely with equipments to break the fights handy, it will be okay ❤️
I honestly can’t say thank you enough. I am planning on buying a Pomeranian mix. So I’m doing a lot of research. Yours is the best on CZcams. I’ve done a lot of reading and it’s good to know as much as possible I think. Because you’re not just getting a dog you’re getting a living creature that you need to understand. Wish me luck thank you so much
Aww thank you so much! And thank you for being a responsible dog owner and doing all the needed research before getting your Pom mix ❤️
Spot on!
I’ve been thinking about giving my Pom a brother . Haven’t decided yet. But I love my Pomeranian
Thank you telling such important facts about pomeranians😊
Thank you so much . I am planning to buy a promernian and that's why I am doing a lot of research and you are the best. Thanks again and keep it up ❤️
Aww thank you! ❤️ When are you planning to get yours?
@@CeceFamily after my exams ❤️🥰
I'm planning to get a new dog and I'm considering a pomeranian, so I'm doing research and preparation. Thanks so much for this video, it was super informative, well produced and engaging!
Awwww so in love with your poms !! 😍😍😍
Thank you, Nataliya! ❤️
Congratulations, wish we could take lessons from you😊
Thank you, Joy!! ❤️
I made a lot of mistakes with my Pom 😢and he broke his knee but he recovered over 2 weeks now he walks perfectly but it was very hard on him 😃and I’m very happy his growing up to be a very cheerful and playful boy❤️
I’m so glad to hear that!! ❤️❤️
Your videos are the best! I wish I was in NY because I’d 100% be coming to you! I regret not getting my girl socialized with other dogs, but she was sick when I got her at 8 weeks, and by the time she better and fully vaccinated it was too hot in Orlando. She’s 10 months now and she’s not aggressive with other dogs, but very shy and doesn’t really know how to play. I want to get another dog but I don’t know when it’ll be appropriate timing.
Aww thank you so much!!! ❤️ At least she's not aggressive so that's a good thing hehe! But fearful dogs are usually incredibly challenging to train too as they're running away from the trigger instead of coming towards it. Just find a few close friends around for her to hang out weekly or daily if possible, and that should help to build her confidence slowly. Get another dog whenever you feel like you're ready for another year of having a puppy around - it's a lot of work to raise a puppy, and can be both mentally and physically exhausting we all know it haha! 😂
Great video. You are helping me a lot. Thank you so much.
I'm gonna buy a pom puppy soon. I'm so excited.
I'm super excited for you!
Thank you
Thank you for posting these, I wish I found you so much sooner!
Like Before I brought my little Luna home.
Better late than never I suppose.
🖤
Yes better late than never ❤️
Amazing video cece
Thank you! ❤️
I can’t wait for mine to be delivered on Saturday ❤️
Have you got yours yet? ❤️
Thank you for that helpful information!❤️
By the way, your face looks like Scarlet Snow, the daughter of Dra. Vicki Belo and Hayden Kho. So pretty!💕
We had all electrical outlets installed 16” off the floor. This was to make them out of reach of a puppy. We also have outlet covers over the outlets. I heard that you can spray an anti-chew chemical on the wall and floor near the outlets to discourage from getting close.
That’s awesome!!! Thank you for taking the necessary steps to make sure your puppy is safe!
They r so cute Pomeranian 😊😊
I want like this type of Pomeranian😊😊
❤️❤️
Thank you for addressing the arm pit hair no one seems to talk about it. I brush Hudson every two days. If his eye stains get hard I use cotton ball dipped in warm water I blot or wipe gently to loosen up the hard stuff and use flea comb and it comes out easily. I'm gentle around the eye area. I know he doesn't do stairs so he sleeps downstairs as the stairs are steep and I don't want him to fall.
Aww Hudson is so lucky to have you as his owner!!
Thank you Jane I really appreciate that!🌸🐾
@@CeceFamily Thank you , I still do make mistakes and fix them. Lol!
I’m in NYC! I was wondering if you have classes yet?
Could you tell me the best brushes or combs for baby poms?
I highly recommend the Gooby No choke harness. My Pom puppy was still gagging with a regular harness until I changed him to this one.
With my previous Pom, I always observed he seemed much happier after having a clip at the groomers- much more full of energy?
Thank you so much for your suggestion! We'll definitely look into it!
Dogs usually have zoomies after a bath, and go crazy running around the house - it's actually pretty normal! Ours do it all the time too after we groom them at home and it's so much fun to look at hehe!
Very helpful video, thank you so much! All of these things are really good to know.
My Pomeranian (his name is Nyro and he's a bit older than two years) is luckily quite well behaved, although lately he has been whining very often. We suspect it's because of a female dog in our neighborhood who is in heat, because he's also very active, humps our shoes sometimes, and outside he starts pulling the leash like he never does otherwise. It has been like this for two days now, but it isn't the first time he's like this and it usually goes away after some time, but we never know how to deal with this situation, since we definitely don't wanna punish our dog (we only reward him for good behaviour and tell him something is wrong by saying "no"), but the noises he makes are kind of aggravating when you're trying to do work or talk to each other.
Thank you! Is Nyro neutered?
@@CeceFamily No, he isn't. We are considering it though...
My dog loves harness instead of leash. She barks at things bigger than her but is happy with kids and dogs smaller than her. It didn’t help that we got her during the pandemic so we had to train her ourselves. And CONGRATS ON THE TRAINER CERTIFICATE!! Wish we could ask you for training but we’re in California lol
Yep pandemic has done a number of things on puppies! Lucky she turned out mostly fine though - and only reacts to bigger dogs. I'm sure she will get better the more often she gets to interact with bigger dogs too! ❤️
On s again great video!!! Great information especially the collar and socialization factor. I think Pomeranians are naturally social animals this is what makes them great therapy dogs. I do want to suggest that sone Poms can be born with a natural instinct of a natural fear. It is critical as you state to get them socialized with so many different situations. I currently have a Pom that has this condition. From birth she has feared people and tends to back up even with those she is knows well. While I socialize her often I also realize that I can’t push her into accepting new people and situations that make this situation worse. So we carefully socialize her, give her time to adjust but keep introducing her new situations. What is truly amazing I have a son with severe disabilities and she naturally goes to him and spend quality time with him. I don’t know if she senses her is different and needs her if she feels more comfortable because he doesn’t push her to behave, we are trying to figure this out but we also recognize her comfort level and respect this so it’s a fine line to not it’s your dog into uncomfortable situations and socializations. Think about it this way, every person you meet aren’t friendly and some people are very comfortable being away from others. Poms can be the same way so it’s truly worth knowing where your feels relaxed and respect thus too. I have seen such different personalities traits in each and every Pom so that you don’t make the mistake and transitive a Pom bully pushing them too hard. My little one right now loves certain people l, my cat but you can see the panic hit as soon as she gets in the car. Even though we have given her many many rides in the car she just is uncomfortable with ur. Perhaps she has motions issues as well. We recognize when she has a had too much and don’t want to over do her exposures. Perhaps you can do a video of when you get a Pom like this? I realize you touched on thus in this recent video but what yo do when the Pom is truly nit able to handle things even with your efforts to recondition them to feel comfortable. She showed great promise as a therapy dog she just isn’t going to fill this role. So she will make a great pet, one thst loves you unconditionally but you have to address all of her needs. She too will Benedict with another Pom in our home which I’m used to as you mentioned if you train you Pom from the very begging to be used to other dogs they will be thrilled to have another Pom they can play with. I also wanted to ask you to share the best toys fir Poms. I have found that my shy Pom loves to “seek” so I have found lots of ways to have her seek treats, and toys and puzzle game thst she is very good at and it builds her confidence as well. Also nit every trainer as you pointed out are familiar with Pom training so beware of your trainer selection. You don’t want to select a trainer that goes for one size fits all approaches as clearly they don’t recognize the difference and Pons are nit German Sheoprard’s! If they can’t see this then they can’t train yurt dog. Thus is why your trainer talents are needed here. If you can share more training suggestion it would be greatly appreciate. Thanks again fir a great video many Poms and their owners will benefit and thank you for it.🙏🙏🥰
Aww thank you so much! And thank you for sharing about your little Pom and your son too - what a beautiful and heart-warming story! ❤️
Hi there!
Congratulations on getting your certification for dog training!
Thank you!! 💕
we love our Pomeranian an y'all do give. Great advice and Wheeler City and we love both ccs and babies and y'all do a wonderful job with those dogs and we thank y'all for the price of giving us cuz you know we listen here I'll call her and it works and we thank you for the advice and we want I'll see you come back and show more videos other than babies so we love you sissy and boo we love you all too we love the CC family
Aww thank you so much, Mickey! ❤️
please show more videos of cece an boo we love you guys an we r going to support u guys. to an we love all of yall an cece an boo r our babys to we love an we love y'all also so we love u cece an boo with all our heart
I'm luck with my pom, doesn't bark at anything, doesn't care about other dogs, but loves people. Again, doesn't bark AT ALL. She's obsessed with food though. Gotta be very carefully what we leave laying around. Just last night I left a sealed bag of oreos on the floor next to my chair. Ate just about half of it while I was sleeping
🤣🤣🤣 that's sooo cute,!! 😭
Mistake#1 has cost me $$$ with Lightning. The trainer used it and that's when we saw problems. Good on #2 & 3 thanks to your help on brushing, #4 is taking me forever to get rid of, #5 learned the hard way with TP around the house :), but now gated off from the whole house when we are gone...in case he decides to leave us a little brown suprise.
Yep some trainers unfortunately lack the knowledge of the breed so it can be dangerous. The brown surprise had me laughing though lol! 😂
thank you so much, im picking up a puppy pom in next days, I want the best for him
Aww thank you! How's he doing?
@@CeceFamily he's doing fine! I didn't expect for him to be so smart and active, learns so quickly, it's been a joy 😊
wow. so much goes into taking of a dog
THE DOG IT'S SO CUTE
Thanks very much for this video.
Only mistake we make is not wiping her tears away and will make sure we do that daily.
Great breed of dog and so much fun
And yes, I've heard a lot of not shaving your Pom as it can harm them.
Our Pom is 8 yrs old and gets a groom session every month including a jacuzzi bath lol. She's well spoiled lol
Hahaa jacuzzi bath? She’s a fortunate pom having a owner like you to pamper her with so much love and care! 💕
Great tips! Also I think you speak English very well!
Thank you so much, Kate! ❤️
Muito bom o video, eu adoro a raça Pomeranian🐕🐾 😍
I'm going to get a pomeranian spitz puppy in about 1 in a h week so this helpt alot! ❤
I did make one mistake when I got my boy. Roughly at 5-6 months old he had his first grooming appointment, I didn’t know much about the coat type and ended up getting him shaved… He’s 4 now and his coat is still recovering.
I was so careful with my boy as a puppy, however he still got enough socialization.
No collar, unless it’s already on and it’s only for a quick potty break.
We did use an ecollar for off leash training, as we had tried everything else first. I definitely don’t recommend it for everyone, it’s just what my boy needed.
We are able to get away with once a week brushing, because I am constantly checking his coat for matts. Most often I catch them when they can still be brushed out, and I clip them out carefully if I can’t brush it out.
We use gates in our house to restrict his ability to go to certain places, and use a bathroom rn (his crate has needed cleaned for a while, I just haven’t had the spoons for it) when we leave the house and he doesn’t come with us.
Thank you so much for being a responsible Pom owner! ❤️❤️
I would love to have you as a trainer for my daughter's pomchi! We are struggling so much with the bitting and make her use the wiwi pad.🤦
I love my pom so much but I made the mistake of not letting him socialize with other dogs, out of fear that something bad would happen to him because he was so small, but he does love humans
Our toy Pom passed at 14-years and 10- months and she looked exactly like that orange one in your video! Can I have one like it? Please…..🙏😢
Love your video. I'd found you several months ago when I finally found my pomeranian. Her name is Sabrina. Miniature pom that'll be 4 pounds fully grown.
Ah, I wish I could show you lol
Awww send me a photo of Sabrina on instagram!! 😍
@@CeceFamily done 😊
Love our lil Pomeranian, but the socialization thing we can relate to and can not get our lil guy out of the problem it caused, We live in Australia and got Rin February 2021. We got him at 8 weeks old, from the time he was born till we got him there had been bad bushfires. The person we got him from had been isolated because of the fires and everyone was told to stay inside because of the smoke, the bushfires lasted 2 months. Then for near 3 weeks after we got him we had torrential rain and thunderstorms nearly every day So where stuck inside. 2 weeks after getting our little man, Covid hit and we where put in lockdown for a little over 8 months. He is now 4, and while he is good with us and close family, (the few we could let him be social with thanks to fires, rain and covid) he is extremely reactive when taking him on walks or out, so often looking for places that have no people or other dogs :(
I had one he passed away 3 weeks ago he was my friend I miss him
My pom Sylvie is reactive towards people, dogs, and inanimate objects. She's slowly getting better but when it comes to inanimate objects, I have to nudge it with my foot to make her realize it's safe. When I got her, her old owner said she was 8 months old, but first trip at the vet told me she was 1-2 years old. I have a toy Aussie who used to have that issue but we've been able to fix it and he does much better now. My biggest issue is my papillon is extremely social but he also likes to cause trouble, so even if he's not bothered by the sight of other people/dogs, he'll alert her to it and she'll get into a barking fiasco. Still, she's getting better.
Thank you for not giving up on their behavioral issues and continually working on them! I’m sure they’ll improve after consistent exposure to the triggers and counter-conditioning at the right threshold ❤️
😻😻 can't wait to own pomeranian
yayyy!! 💕
Mine hates the sound of a motorcycle. Even if we're inside our car she will still bark and bark and bark 😅 thanks for this video. I learned a lot❤❤
Thank you! ❤️ Maybe try playing the sound of motorcycle from your phone at home at a low decibel first and reward her with treats so she can make a positive association with the sound, and gradually increase the volume, and finally when she's ready - bring her outside close to a motorcycle but far enough so she won't react to it and repeat the same process? I hope this helps - this might take time to get rid of though haha! She's soooooo cute btw!!! I love her dress in your photo! ❤️ And hey my English name is Jane too 😛
I'm so lucky my pom is a "throwback" and around 17 lb. It makes her much less fragile, but I still never use the leash on her collar. She makes coughing sounds when I even touch her neck. I definitely don't want to pull on it.
Congrats on becoming a dog trainer!
I have 3 I would love a throwback!! I''ve only seen them in pictures
@@Brownmanifesting I love the typical size of Poms too! My pup was given up at a shelter, and I was shocked that someone would surrender such a special dog.
@@Nikotastik oh my goodness well that’s wonderful to open the back door that they ended up with a furever home with you!!! 💕
Aww haha! Yup throwback Poms are less fragile for sure and we'd love to have one too if it weren't for our travel frequency! I can't imagine how I can squeeze a 17-pound dog into a tiny carrier under the airplane seat 😂😅
@@CeceFamily It's not as bad as I originally thought it would be! She is very good on planes. It just took a lot of training to get her comfortable with her carrier.
I have always cut the tummy fur short in summer, would this be ok for a Pom?
We have got puppy Pomeranian Jack Russell
How do you get him to eat his food without playing?
What do we wipe trace stains with
Hi Ik this is an old video but I got my dog from I assume a place that didn’t particularly care about brushing her hygiene area and idk what to do because she never stays still and I don’t wanna hurt her but she has two big Matts there any clue what I should do?
Hi! It could be all tangled up if they haven’t been brushed for a very long time and trying to detangle them now could be very painful for the dog if not impossible. In these cases, I usually suggest people to trim the matted area using the small trimmer that I mentioned in this grooming video that I made a while ago How To Groom Your Pomeranian At Home
czcams.com/video/xJyssORKdAc/video.html it’s much safer than using a scissors especially if you’re new to grooming. I hope this helps!
I have made mistake #2. I waited till she got all her shots and now she’s afraid of everything. I have her in training and my trainer says to start taking her to parks where she can approach people if she wants to to help build her confidence. I was thinking of taking her to my university. She gets really excited near people and pees and my vet said it’ll go away so I’m hoping it goes away soon. I take her on walks and she freezes every time she sees a person or a dog. I’ve been using treats to get her to focus on me so I’ll keep trying that
I'm so glad you're getting her the help she needs, and that you keep trying to counter-condition her fears with positive reinforcement. She's lucky to have you & I'm sure she'll get better soon with more practice and training!
I wish I could speak any type of second language. It’s not easy and you speak English exceptionally well. I’m hard of hearing and gave no problem hearing you.
We got our pom, Baxter, at about 12 weeks and he's very reactive to other people, dogs, and inanimate objects that he's not familiar with. He wasn't socialized other than other poms at the breeder's. Since we got him, we have exposed him to many places, people as well as puppy kindergarten. He still barks so I'm curious as to how you trained your poms to not bark so much?
It's a difficult concept for me to explain in a comment but generally speaking, for fearful barking due to lack of socialization, you should try to keep a good distance between your dog and the trigger, far enough for him to recognize the trigger but still remains calm, and consistently pair it with high-value rewards, and also ask for a obedience cue like "look" to get your dog to focus on you instead of the other dog. That's the short version of it of course, I highly recommend working with a trainer in your area as soon as possible to give Baxter the help he needs. The earlier we work on a behavioral problem, the easier it's to get rid of it!
Pomeranians definitely must be thoroughly socialized asap unfortunately my mother's pom was extremely ill and very delicate for several weeks from the day he came home and needed constant care for the first entire week which caused him to not only miss out on that vital time window but form the mother of all attachment issues. He's not a fan of strangers on the street outside the window and while he will tolerate the presence of people in public even large noisy crowds, he refuses to allow anyone to touch him unless my mom literally puts their hand on him and it does nothing but stress him out so she usually refuses 90% of the time he's fine with other dogs especially younger and surprisingly much larger dogs and he adores cats considering he lives with 3 but he is very picky with the people he allows around him
Your my favorite 😍😍👏
Aww thank you! ❤️❤️
what breed is that at 7:17 ??? Please someone let me know
It’s a Keeshond! ❤️
Don't crate any animal if you don't really have to. It makes their bones weak. Happy and healthy means building strong bones (run an empty soccer field daily) so falling down the stairs isn't an issue.. no gates necessary.
I only use slip leashes,now im sad :( . My dog never wears a collar or harness,but when we meet ppl at a walk i just slip the leash over my dog out of politness and when they passed by i remove it. I didnt know ppl use it as a training tool,i always used it out of convinience for quick leashing.
If I have a backyard so i still need to walk my pom or letting her run around in the backyard is ok?
Thank you for your videos! I have a pom as well 🥰 my Pomeranian had a collapsed trachea, i used a collar until 1 year old because I didn’t know :( he’s 2 now and has been using a harness for over a year now and is doing better. I wish i knew bc i feel like i caused it as a pussy since he used to pull.. who knows but it has improved with a harness, occasionally he will still have episodes that sounds like reverse sneezing.
Thank you! ❤️ It’s still pretty common for Poms to have those episodes that sound like reverse sneezing even after trying to do all of the right things but as long as you’re doing your best to minimize the frequency of it happening such as using a collar and keeping him at a healthy weight, I think that’s the best we could do as Pom owners already since it’s a very common health problem for them ❤️
my pom is 12 y.o going on 13 this year. and she haaateee being brushed.. i try everything, gentle brush, various brushes too.but she just hate it. so when the shedding season come, im just hopeless. and her fur does tangled in some part of her body. i just shaved it as my last attempt.
Our girl (Pepper) is a blk & white ,3 months old pomeranian
Ive been taking her on car rides , to stores , friends & families homes ... i want her to experience as much as possible but i do worry about different respirator illnesses going around ...
know 2 people whos dogs contacted kennel cough & one pneumonia
Would like to start obedience training & get her around other dogs but i worry with her being so tiny and only having had her 1st round of shots if it will be safe
Oh yea with this current respiratory virus that has been going around, I'd be extra cautious during this time too!
