Pomeranian Growth Chart
How big will your Pomeranian puppy grow to be?  How much will a Pomeranian puppy grow?  These are the questions that every new Pom puppy owner wants to know !

The size of your Pom once an adult will depend on:

  • The size of the puppy's parents (although genes may skip a generation or very rarely a Pomeranian may be a "Throwback" , carrying genes of the Pom's ancestors & be perhaps 18 or 19 lbs.)
  • The dog's activity level
  • The nutrition that the dog is receiving (remember that under-nourished dogs have severe health issues and a Pom puppy must always be given the best dog food available)
An experienced, excellent breeder will have the knowledge to carefully select the pairings of dogs to produce desired size and color.  One must still remember that Mother Nature does have the final say.

It is not possible to know exactly what size a Pomeranian puppy will grow to be; however it is possible to estimate the size, usually within a 1/2 pound.

This is done by looking at the age of the puppy & the pup's current weight.

Here are the directions for using the Pomeranian Growth Chart:

All numbers are in ounces, except for the Final Adult Weight of the Pomeranian, which is in pounds.

To covert your Pom's weight in pounds to ounces, remember that 16 ounces = 1 pound.

Therefore:

If your Pomeranian is 3.3 pounds, the formula would be 16 (the ounces that are in a pound)  x 3 (because the Pom is 3 solid pounds)  + 3 (because the Pom is the .3 pounds on top of the 3 pounds), which equals 51
ounces

Another example If your Pomeranian is 2.5 pounds, the formula would be 16 x 2 + 5, which equals 37 ounces

1.  Look in the column all the way to the left,  find the age of your Pom puppy.

2.  Slide your finger across the row until you stop on the weight in ounces that your pup currently is.

3.  Then, slide your finger all the way to the bottom of the chart to end up on the Final Adult Weight.
