HEALTH INFO
ALL PUPS ARE VET CHECKED. PUPS AND ADULTS ARE ON A DE-WORMING SCHEDULE BEGINNING AT 4 WEEKS OF AGE.
HYPOGLYCEMIA
Hypoglycemia or low blood sugar is a health problem that affects some puppies between 5 and 16 weeks of age and all Pom owners must be on the lookout for it. Hypoglycemia is recognizable by a healthy puppy suddenly becoming weak, listless, unaware of its surroundings, even unable to walk or stand.
Advance stages include seizures before lapsing into a coma, which is followed by death. Some breeders let an ill pup lick Nutra-Cal off their fingers. Please do not hesitate on taking your PUP to the vet if you notice a severe case of Hypoglycemia.
CARE OF THE POMERANIAN
The Pomeranians are noted for their abundant coat, they are generally very easy to maintain in beautiful condition. Taking just a few minutes to brush out any shedding coat a couple of times a week avoids matting. keeping their nails trimmed is the only other requirement besides infrequent bathing. Maintain good eating habits for your Pom. Establish them in a good quality dry kibble or natural diet. Your local Pomeranian Club will be able to help if you choose to exhibit your Pom in show presentation. Arrange to have regular professional veterinarian teeth cleaning. Your veterinarian can also show you how to brush your Pom's teeth.
CAUTION
As with any canine, leaving unsupervised small children with Pom's is not advised. Pom's do not dislike children's, but very young children's might not have the necessary coordination and respect to handle such a small animals wisely.
They love to go with you every where, please never leave your Pom, or any other pet locked in your car. The temperature can reach dangerous levels in a very few minutes. Do not leave your Pom unattended, these cute fur balls are easily stolen. Because of the Pom's small size, make sure the veterinarian you use is familiar with toy dogs. It is very easy to overdose Pomeranians with needed medications because of their small size.
