I had a pom for 12 years, she passed away a year ago from complications of Cushing's Disease. She was from a pet store (before I realized where they really got their puppies) and she was much more aloof than my yorkies, a barker and very territorial which could just be bad breeding. She was very pretty and could be sweet when she wanted to. She did mellow as she got older but was pretty hyper. She panted all the time when I asked the vet why she said she was a highly excitable dog. Very intelligent. I loved her but she was much different than the yorkie personality I was use to. I just fostered a pom puppy for the last month and she was a puppy mill rescue and very sweet and not aggressive at all, she was submissive to my Roxie when they got in to it a couple of times. She was not a barker but she was very high energy. I just talked to her new Mom and she said she was wearing her and her poodle out! lol. Just do your research and buy from a reputable breeder. I love the look of poms and their coat is much easier to take care of. |
