My female adult pomeranian is terrified of our new chihuahua puppy. He chases her around everywhere, and my pom just runs. How do i get them to stop this?
I think that is going to be a bit hard chihuahua dogs are very jealous and protective of their owner they do not like to share them.

I am getting a male pomeranian puppie in a couple weeks and I am trying to find out how to house train it. He is only ganna be six weeks old and I go to work from 7 am to 3:15 pm. How should I house train it.
Crate him….not in a huge crate, or he will just go in one of the corners and pee.
You are going to have to get up early and let him out, feed and water him, and let him get rid of all of that BEFORE you crate him up for work….DON'T put any food and water in the crate.
When you get home, take him out of the crate IMMEDIATELY, and say whatever word you are going to use over and over while you are taking him outside ("potty, outside)…and praise him like crazy when he goes.
I also don't give my puppies water after about 8pm in the evening…and I NEVER just leave water down for them to drink whenever they want; you will never get him potty trained like that.
You could also think about leaving him with a pet sitter for the day.
Good Luck.

If you're thinking about getting a Pomeranian puppy, welcome to the joys of dog ownership.
Pomeranians are a breed of "toy" or small dogs that are renowned for their attractive double layer coats, sturdy build and friendly, inquisitive nature. The dogs are compact, with short backs, a short muzzle and a generally fox-like appearance, with small ears. Their tail curls up until the tip is parallel to the spine and a typical Pomeranian is between 3 and 7 pounds. Show-dog optimums are 4-6 pounds. Pomeranians come in a wide variety of colors with the most common being Black and Tan.
Pomeranians are very bright, active dogs as they mature. They're high energy and good companions for people in medium sized homes. They are very affectionate and are good at keeping their human owners active with a strong play regimen and their affinity for running.
Sadly, a Pomeranian puppy's high energy and inquisitive nature means that not all homes are ideal for them. If you cherish peace and quiet, a Pomeranian may put you to the test. Likewise, their intelligence means that "dog proofing" your home can be an exercise in frustration, particularly since Pomeranians can jump surprisingly high for a toy dog. Like most high energy dogs, expect to spend a lot of time playing with them and walking them as they go from puppyhood to adolescence to full maturity.
If you're looking to adopt a Pomeranian, you may find one through a local rescue agency or (rarely) through an animal shelter. You may want to try to contact a reputable breeder. Talk to the breeder and find out how many pups they sell in a year and if they participate in Pomeranian rescue. A good breeder will be asking you questions as well - he'll want to make sure the Pomeranian puppies are going to good homes.
Be sure to ask if the Pomeranian breeder has any dogs that have manifested genetic diseases c they shouldn't be breeding from those dogs. All of their breeding dogs should be registered with the American Kennel Club and the breeder should be well versed with the breed standards.
When meeting the puppies, look for a biddable personality and look for signs of intractability before taking him home. Following these steps will go a long way towards making a Pomeranian a welcome and active part of your home.

I'm seriously considering buying a Pomeranian and I live in a two story house. Is it safe for small dogs go up and down stairs?
I'm sure your dog can handle the stairs, as long as you're not making it run up and down all day.
Everyone I know lives in a multistory house, and though the dogs dont normally get to go upstairs and into the bedrooms, their animals are all fine

I have a 4 month old Pomeranian and a fenced-in yard. Sometimes when I am cooking dinner and I know she needs to potty, I try to let her into the back yard to take car of business. Unless I go out with her, she will just bark and scratch at the back door. How do I get her to play and potty in the yard without me there?
Have you tried leaving the door open? My puppy is like that, she is so afraid to leave the room by herself. I am sure your dog just loves your company. Maybe give her some of her favorite toys or treats outside and casually walk back in and leave the door open so she knows she is not locked out. She may feel like you are abandoning her with the door shut. Hope I've helped!!

I want my pomeranian to learn how to fetch, so that he will be active, and loose some energy. I know pomeranians aren't drived to fetch, so is there a way to teach them? How did you teach your dog?? He is only 4 months old, but he is smart, and already knows how to sit, stay, laydown, and come!
Thanks
I also want to teach my puppy to leave it, and drop it? Any ideas?
I have a beagle puppy and the way we get him to fetch is that we hold a treat up in the air and the ball in the other. We then throw the ball. After he gets the ball we say Fetch! and hold the treat and try to get him to come back to us. He usually drops it so he can get the treat, but if he doesn't then we say drop it and pull it out of his mouth and give him the treat after we get it.
Here is an article on how to teach your dog to fetch also….
The time has come to have a bit of fun with your pet. You step out the door, unhook the leash and throw a tennis ball to the other end of the yard… And your dog looks up at you like you just lost your mind. What went wrong? Looks like its time to head back to the training ground for Fetch lessons.
Fetch is a simple command and is taught easily to puppies but is not beyond the grasp of older dogs as well. In this simple form of a rudimentary game, fetch is primarily used as an entertainment with a primary purpose of creating bonding time between dog and trainer. In more advanced forms, it is used in police dog training for such things as weapon recovery and drug location. So how do we go about teaching this behavior?
One of the basic methods of training the fetch command is using two toys in a bait and switch routine. The toys must be identical and something the dog enjoys playing with. Starting with the dog on a leash or a halter, hide one of the toys on your person and throw the other a short distance after showing it to your pet. Release the dog from the leash and say "fetch" or whatever cue word you choose. The dog will chase after the toy and, most likely, will pick it up. When the animal starts to return with the first toy, produce the hidden one.
The animal will likely drop the toy they are carrying in favor of the new toy. When this happens, wait for the dog to return to you and be reattached to the leash before throwing the new toy. After throwing the new toy, say "fetch" while releasing the animal to give chase. While your dog is chasing the new toy, run and retrieve the first toy. Repeat this process several times using the fetch command. For dogs that are not toy motivated, try adding a bit of flavoring to the game by way of some meat spread or some food reward when the behavior is carried out properly. Toys such as the Kong toys are great for this as they can be stuffed with all manner of pleasant surprises for your pet.
Another method is the forced retrieve. This is accomplished by throwing the toy a short distance and manually walking the dog to the object and waiting for them to pick it up. Reward them generously for finding and picking up the object. In further stages, have a partner walk the dog out for the pick up and then have them walked back to you with the item. Again reward them generously for making the retrieve.
A few of the common tips given by many pet trainers are quite useful in this area. One of the first is not to go for long distance throwing. Short throws are easier for the animal to keep a visual on and require less concentration. They also make for less work for the trainer should the dog fail to adequately grasp the concept. Another point is to reserve fetch toys for fetch. If you let your dog play with the toy all the time, they lose their novelty and the dogs drive to chase them will be greatly diminished. If you make the dog wait to play with these toys then they are a special treat and the dog will see the toy itself as a reward.
Another tip is to be certain to hold the animal a moment before allowing them to chase the object. This gives them a moment to clearly focus on the objective and to build a stronger desire to retrieve the object they seek. Thus, when they are released, they spring to the object in a flurry of motion and grasp it up easily. Another wonderful tip is to avoid the use of sticks as fetch toys. They are hard on the animal's mouth and may contain parasites or poisonous substances, not to mention confusing the animal if you play near an area with tree growth.
With these simple techniques and tips mastered, you are ready to take to the park with your Frisbee, tennis ball or throwing dummy and enjoy a great afternoon of exercise and bonding with your pet.

If you are looking for a small or miniature size dog that is easy to get along with and has a cheerful personality, then you should consider getting yourself a Pomeranian. Pomeranians are perfect if you live in a small apartment but they are also great if you have a spacious farmhouse. The Pomeranian enjoys going for walks as well as being a lap dog.
The size of a Pomeranian is often in the reason people choose this pet. Males are usually between 4 and 4 1/2 pounds and female Pomeranians are usually between 4 1/2 and 5 1/2 pounds. There is not much variation in the weight and height of these dogs.
It is thought that the Pomeranian originated in Germany but since it is a member of the Spitz family it could have Arctic Circle origins. In the 18th century the Pomeranian was originally introduced in several different countries throughout Europe. It became very popular among the elite members of the European Society. During the early times of the Pomeranian breed it was a much larger dogs and some weighed up to 30 pounds, by 1900 and British kennel club only allowed certificates for dogs under 8 pounds.
The feeding recommendations for a Pomeranian are one to 1 1/2 cups of dry food or a combination of half a can of food combined with some biscuits. Because this breed of dog is so small it does not require very much food on a daily basis, but that makes it even more important to provide high nutritional food with the amounts the dog eats.
The Pomeranian enjoys lying on its owners lap and relaxing, they are perfectly happy living a pampered dog's life. If the Pomeranians owner is an active individual these little dogs have no problems keeping up on long walks. Don't be afraid to let these little dogs get lots of exercise, they enjoy the activity.
Pomeranians are definitely not the dogs for someone who cannot take time out of their schedule for grooming. Because the Pomeranian actually has two coats of fur they need special care to keep their coat looking good. Pomeranians have a short undercoat that is fluffy as well as a longer topcoat that this straight. After wetting the fir, make sure the moisture has soaked through both layers of their coat, and then use a stiff brush to smooth out their fur. Start at the head of your Pomeranian and part their fur brushing it forward from roots to the tip, continue this process until finished.
If you are looking for a small dog for your family or just for yourself the Pomeranian is a great choice. These happy kindhearted dogs enjoyed being around others and will quickly become a great part of your family. The only major downside to the Pomeranian breed of dog is the daily upkeep of their coat, but even this only requires about 10 minutes per day.
