The Pomimo is a cross between the Pomeranian and an American Eskimo. They usually weigh 10 - 17 pounds and are between 7 and 12 inches tall, being smaller than the American Eskimo, but larger than a typical Pomeranian.
Like both the Poms and American Eskimos they are bred from, the coat is thick and long, with a dense undercoat. Coat colors include white, cream, orange, brown and black or mixes of these colors. Grooming needs are like that of purebred Poms, with daily brushing and occasional bathing.
These dogs are affectionate, loyal, and intelligent. Although they can have the temperament of either breed, they generally have a good temperament, get along with children, and make good pets. They need moderate exercise and respond well to consistent training.
If so, tell us all about your Pomimo and we'll put it here on our website - you can include a photo, too. What kind of personality does he have? What makes your him so special? You can let others know what to expect from a Pomimo.
