It’s really hard to watch a Pomeranian be super itchy; it’s clearly uncomfortable for the puppy or dog, and you’re not alone if you’re having trouble figuring out what’s causing the problem.
A Pom that is itchy can be constantly scratching, and both skin and coat are often affected. Some Poms will scratch so much that the skin breaks open, causing further secondary issues.
Itching may be limited to just one part of the body such as the armpits, groin, base of the tail, ears, or paws, or it can be an all-over body problem. You may have tried products that helped, but only to some degree. And in many cases, even had a vet prescribe some medications that only partially worked.
Issues with itching can occur with Poms of any age, and it’s not uncommon for this sort of problem to be seen with adult Pomeranians that had no previous issues at all.
While you may need to do some work to find the root cause of the itching, there is help to resolve this. This section will cover what you need to know and steps to help your Pom stop scratching for good.
