Whether it is their fox-like features or their confident little strut, male Pomeranian puppies continue to win the hearts of dog lovers around the globe. Beyond their fluffy coats and handsome faces, male Poms have unique traits and needs for care that any potential owner should understand before purchase.
If you’re considering welcoming one into your family, here’s everything you need to know to make an informed, heart-centered decision.
Personality Traits of Male Poms
While every dog has its unique temperament, some traits are generally associated with male Pomeranians.
- Affectionate and Loyal: Male Poms usually form close ties with one or two human beings and need constant attention.
- Playful and Bold: Though small in size, these little dogs are unafraid to check out their surroundings or stand up to be used as “watchdogs.”
- Territorial Tendencies: Males may mark their territory more aggressively or guard it more zealously, especially in the presence of other animals.
Neutering them early can help control unwanted behaviors such as marking or humping; however, early socialization and training are also imperative to have a well-adjusted adult dog.
Grooming and Daily Care
The signature Pom coat is one of those features that make this breed really dear to people, but it certainly requires a lot of maintenance. Here are some basic considerations to keep in mind:
- Brushing: A couple of times a week to prevent matting behind the ears and under the legs.
- Dental Health: Small breed dogs, such as Poms, are prone to dental problems, so frequent brushing and vet cleanings are essential.
- Exercise: Usually, very little exercise is needed for these babies-short walks and some indoor playtime.
Treating grooming as bonding time with your dog will offer the chance to keep an eye on their health, looking out for any lumps, ticks, or skin irritation.
The Teddy Pom Look and What to Expect
One of the most sought-after looks in the Pomeranian world is the teddy bear appearance. With a round face, short muzzle, and dense, rounded coat, these dogs resemble stuffed animals brought to life.
When browsing listings, you may come across ads for a teddy Pomeranian for sale. While “teddy” isn’t an official breed term, it’s widely used to describe Pomeranians with a baby-faced structure and fuller coat styling, either through genetics or grooming technique.
Buyers should ask for recent photos, details about grooming, and information on the puppy’s lineage to ensure they’re getting what’s being represented.

Finding the ideal Pom is much more than just coat style or color; it’s also about where and how the puppy was raised. If you want a chocolate, cream, or teddy bear Pomeranian in Georgia, an ethical breeder must be one of your options.
