Pomeranian Dog Training Tips

Pomeranian Training

Information on Training Your Pomeranian Dog or Puppy

The Pomeranian has a very cocky and spirited personality, and can often get himself into hot water, challenging dogs that are much larger than himself. If you have larger dogs, be prepared to supervise and keep a close eye on Mr. Personality, before he gets himself into trouble. Pomeranians should always be kept on a leash, when outside, for this very same reason.

As with any toy breed, Pomeranian puppies should be watched around small children. Being dropped or tripped over can seriously hurt your little Pomeranian, or worse. Many toy breeders will not even sell a Pomeranian puppy to someone with a child under 5 years of age, for this very reason. Not in an attempt to be mean, but to save you and your child heartbreak, and to protect that adorable little puppy, they have the right idea in keeping the puppies safe. Older Pomeranians should also be watched as pulled ears and tails can result in your Pom snapping in retaliation.

Taking your time to train your Pomeranian will help him to become a better companion, but it does take a great deal of effort and patience. Do not yell at him but speak sternly when he yaps or chews on something that he shouldn't, and always positively reinforce the good behavior that you desire. If you can gain and maintain your Pomeranian's attention, you will find him a bright and eager student. If you take the time to train him and give him all the love that he desires, you will find a sweet and loving little companion who will love to hop into your lap at every opportunity.
