5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best-- very informative., August 21, 2007
This book is fantastic. I got my first Pom earlier this year, and have been collecting a library of Pom books. This one is by far the best. It has pretty much everything you need to know about owning & caring for a Pom. Every once in a while I cross reference to another Pom book, but generally this one is right on with what is best & most up to date! Very informative without being too biased, too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Life saver!!!, June 5, 2009
I ordered this book a couple weeks after rescuing a seven month old pomeranian puppy. This book was a life saver!!! The information about house training was fantastic. Although the chapters about deciding on the breed and finding a breeder in the beginning of the book came a little to late for me, it would have been very useful. Whether you already have a pom, or are just thinking about it, I highly recommend getting this book!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Pomeranian for Dummies, April 13, 2009
By Pat A. John "Pat" (Portland OR USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I received this product very timely and was well satisfied with it. I have owned a Pom for nine years and wished I would have read this book when I first got her. I had plenty to learn though and from past experience, the book is "right on." Recommend it to anyone who is thinking about raising Pomeranians.
