Product Description
A docile temper, vivacious spirit, and physical sturdiness combine in this breed to make Pomeranians ideal family pets. Written especially for dog lovers who have just acquired a pedigreed pup or are about to purchase one, the titles in this series describe the traits, needs, and general characteristics of the title breed. Is the dog adaptable to apartment living or does it need roaming space and daily exercise? Is it good with children? Is it prone to special health problems? These and many other questions are answered in beautifully-produced hardcover volumes, filled with color photos and attractive sidebars.

[back cover]
Want to find out what it?s really like to own a Pom? It?s all here in Living With A Pomeranian, a dog book with a difference. As well as providing the best practical advice on all aspects of Pom care and training, owners tell their special stories of the love and companionship that have come from living with this wonderful breed. Illustrated throughout with stunning photography, Living With A Pomeranian will provide all the information you need to raise a happy, healthy Pomeranian.
[front flap]
Alert, lively, glamorous, and affectionate, the Pomeranian is an ideal companion dog, with fans all around the world.
You will find out everything you need to know about this entertaining character in Living With A Pomeranian, the dog book that says it all.
Advice tailored specifically to the Pom is given on a wide range of topics, including feeding, training, grooming, and general care. The needs of the dog are examined, with emphasis on the importance of socialization. Common behavior problems are tackled, and guidance is given on the best lifestyle for the adult dog.
Throughout this beautifully illustrated book, easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions help you through all the stages of proper and caring ownership.
Although classified as a Toy breed, the Pom is an active dog, descending directly from the larger, working Spitz breeds. His intelligence and liveliness means he can be trained to a surprisingly high level. To provide your Pom with mental stimulation, Living With A Pomeranian includes a unique chapter devoted to all the fun canine activities that you and your dog can enjoy together.
Finally, distinguished veterinarian Trevor Turner writes on the health of the breed. As well as breed-prone conditions and basic first aid, he describes a comprehensive program of preventative health care to ensure that your Pomeranian stays as fit and healthy as possible throughout his life.
