Those who live alone will find this breed to be a great companion...usually eager to go for walks and do other activities together....and happy to cuddle and relax when at home. This breed tends to bond very close with owners; although in some cases if it seems that a Pomeranian does not have a close bond
with an owner, some extra attention and doing more activities together may be needed to make the relationship stronger.
Being very adaptable, most will also enjoy the company of other dogs...and some even get along very well with cats.
Although a Pom is a rather small dog, generally under 10 lbs. (though some can be larger), he doesn't know it and do not try to tell him! This breed was originally a much larger sled dog and therefore the instinct to protect and guard its owner is still inbred in the Pomeranian. Even if your Pom is a quiet dog, do expect its behavior to turn up a notch if a stranger comes to the door.
A Pomeranian may bark if he senses a stranger or feels there may be impending danger to its owner. This breed may show no fear toward anything if he is in 'protection mode'.
And Poms show great loyalty to their family members. Pomeranians love
to please. They will be your best friend, your shadow, and a whole lot of personality in a little ball of fluff.
