Taking care of your Pomeranian requires a consistent daily routine, and in this blog post, we’ll break down the key aspects of keeping your furry friend happy and healthy.
From exercise to dental care, we’ve got you covered.
Pomeranians, known for their moderate energy levels, benefit from 30 minutes of exercise daily.
Two short walks of 15-20 minutes each are ideal.
Even though they don’t need extensive exercise, Poms need frequent bathroom breaks, so taking them outside 4-5 times a day is recommended.
Feeding is crucial, especially for puppies.
Aim for 3-4 meals a day for pups and 2-3 for adults.
Stick to the lower end of the feeding range if you provide multiple treats.
Monitoring their weight is essential, adjusting the intake as needed.
Proper feeding helps avoid pickiness and establishes a reliable potty schedule.
Pomeranians require mental stimulation as much as physical exercise.
Short training sessions and food puzzles are excellent ways to keep them engaged and prevent boredom.
Pomeranians are prone to tear stains, so wiping their eyes 1-2 times a day with makeup cotton pads or pet tear stain removal products is recommended.
Dental hygiene is often overlooked.
Daily brushing with a small toothbrush and dog-friendly toothpaste is crucial to prevent dental issues.
Start early and make it a positive experience for your Pom.
Regular brushing, especially during shedding seasons, is essential.
Use slow feeders or food puzzles to distract puppies and make brushing easier.
Pet bowls can harbor germs, so washing them daily is crucial.
Provide fresh water daily. Regularly check and groom the area around your Pom’s bottom to avoid poop-related problems.
If your Pom exhibits persistent itching or dragging its backside, a visit to the vet may be necessary to express the anal glands.
Following these daily practices will contribute to the overall well-being of your Pomeranian, ensuring they lead a happy and healthy life.
