Dogs have been in competition for ages. We have that Purina dog show that airs on television Thanksgiving Day for goodness sake. Now I am not saying that all dogs aren't cute or cuddly but there is one breed in particular that caught my attention and heart. The Pomeranian.
I have had Labs, Chow Chows, and of course a Pomeranian which makes me partial to all of them. But none quite like a Pom have stolen my heart.
(Disclaimer: I am not advocating for anyone to run out and purchase one today, but this is just a run down of my opinion on this dog breed)
Here are 4 reasons why Pomeranian's are the "best breed in the world"
1. They have such a large personality for such a tiny/small dog
Yes everyone says that their dogs have the biggest personality they have ever seen, but none compare to a Pom. They can be loud and excited, or mellow and cuddly. Or they can be all of the emotions at the same time. They tend to have large Napoleon Complexes which make for an interesting dynamic between owner and pet. The way a Pomeranian walks (more like a strut) is something to behold, you can see the "I'm famous" look radiating off of them like the sunshine on the sand.
2. They make perfect lap dogs
As I sit here typing this, mine is laying on my lap taking a power nap. Pomeranian's are that amazing size that just can fit on your lap without being too terribly heavy. Some enjoy head pets, or belly rubs or both. Some just like to be next to you. No better feeling in the world if you ask me.
3. They are so fluffy!
It's like petting a walking cloud. Poms are soft and have dense fluffy fur which give them the appearance of a cotton ball on stilts (I call my dog that). Pomeranian's have two layers of fur, the long outer coat and the dense undercoat which gives that puffy appearance.
4. Pomeranian's are just an all around MVP
They have the looks, the personality and the determination to be the perfect pet for you. Sure they have their moments where you only want to punt them across a football field (DON'T EVER DO IT) but in the end you look at them and smile because they are so gosh darn cute. They fetch like a lab and worry about their appearance like cats (oh yes this is true) and they make the best companions. I for one couldn't ever imagine my life without one (and I hope I never will). Pomeranian's make you smile with their cute little fox faces just begging you to pet them (or give them belly rubs).
