 Excellent Resource For The First Time Owner October 17, 2008

I bought this book as it was recommended by a Pomeranian owner. I found it answered all my questions, and was a great resource. Thanks to this book I am now the proud owner of my first Pom (Klondike)!
Great Book on Pomeranians June 21, 2008

This is a great book for Pomeranian owners are people who are thinking about owning a Pomeranian. It tells and shows the different types of poms, their colors and what some of the colors are called, for instance a pom that has two broken colors is called a parti-pom and so on. It also explains how to care for this breed of dog and how to care for their coats. It's easy to understand and helps you decide if a pom is the right dog for you. It shows a lot of pictures of different poms to help you decide what size a pom should be by the AKC standards and what size a pom should be if you are interested in showing. It also tells you about the temperament of poms and what diseases they are prone to and what to look out for. It explains how to trim their nails which is very important to poms and how to trim their coats if you want to do it yourself. I would recommend this book to anyone who owns or is thinking about owning a Pomeranian.

this book is maily about getting a pomeranian but it doesn't really focus on the measurement of the crate, collar, etc. i bought this book b/c i thought it would answer all my questions but it didn't. also, it doesnt tell you much about how to groom or bath your pom or about the shedding. i had to go to the library and borrow another book which was much more helpful. if you want a lot of information about poms, do NOT get this book.
 Seemingly comprehensive not at all May 16, 2004

To a person uneducated about Pomeranians, you could think that this covered it all. But I bought this book in concurrence with my first Pomeranian and discovered it really wasn't all it says it is.
If you want to know about dog origins, temperment, AKC standards and cute doggy pictures it's okay, but as far as puppy care it is as basic as it gets. Stuff ANY puppy book would tell you.
Because I have looked at a lot of sources, but am a first time Pom owner, the main thing that tipped me off about this lack, is the medical chapter-which briefly describes what all puppies are vaccinated for and common puppy problems, completely failing to note hypoglycemia! Which is a SERIOUS COMMON health problem for anyone owning a toy dog.
Don't buy it
This is a small book, packed with information. July 30, 1998
