Appearance of the Pomeagle
|
| Pomeagle appearance can vary, even within a litter of puppies. Some may inherit more Beagle traits while others may be more German Toy Spitz / Pomeranian oriented. Generally, they're small dogs, but some can be as big as Beagles. They have an elegant, slightly square muzzle, a black button nose and bright, sparkling round eyes. Their ears can be erect or floppy, again depending on the genetic influence of the parent dog. The body is longer than it is tall, and the legs are slender but strong, with small rounded paws. The tail is often curled over the back, and the coat can vary from smooth like the Beagle to soft and fluffy like the German Toy Spitz / Pomeranian. Color can vary from brown, beige, cream, red, brindle, orange, white or sable. As a well-presented model, the Pomeagle has stunning beauty and a gentle, pleasing nature to match. |
Temperament of the Pomeagle
|
| The Pomeagle is a cheerful, lively little dog that is intensely loyal to its owners. These intelligent dogs are perfect show or agility dogs. Quick to learn, they love a challenge and as long as it's fun, they'll be easy to train. They can be sensitive to tone, so positive reinforcement is necessary. Pomeagles can also become anxious if left alone for long periods. These are human dogs, and they love being with you and being part of your team. This active, inquisitive dog will want to know everything you do, and will be at your side to help you do it. The Pomeagle has German Toy Spitz / Pomeranian tendencies to warn you of strangers on your territory, they bark to alert you, no one can escape their keen eyesight. They make excellent family dogs and get on well with young children, but as puppies they are very small, so play between children and dog needs to be supervised to ensure that toddlers don't bully these little dogs. On the Beagle side, they inherit strong hunting instincts, so it's natural for them to chase fast-moving furry or feathered creatures. If bred with a cat or dog, this may be different, but knowledge of this characteristic is important for the safety of all pets. These endearing, comical and engaging little dogs make ideal companions for families or a single person. With a Pomeagle by your side, you'll never be lonely. |
Needs and activities of the Pomeagle
|
| Pomeagle get most of their exercise by following you around the house or yard. But they still need a daily walk, which is an important part of their socialization skills. Meeting other dogs while they're at the dog park or accompanying you on a walk is a great way to get them used to other dogs and keep them fit and healthy. These dogs love to play, they excel at agility or searching for objects and will enjoy playing at home. As they have a strong hunting instinct, it's advisable to walk them on a leash, otherwise they may run off after a fast-moving bird or furry animal, whatever your shouted instructions to return. If they enjoy the activity, they also like to relax with you, curled up on your lap or next to you on a comfy sofa. True companions, whatever you do, they're fine with it. |
Maintenance of the Pomeagle
|
| Pomeagle need brushing every other day just to remove loose hair and avoid tangles, especially if they've inherited the German Toy Spitz / Pomeranian coat. A firm bristle brush should follow the hair fall, but you may need to vacuum more often than normal with a Pomeagle around. These little dogs don't need to bathe too often, but when you do, be sure to use a gentle dog shampoo to maintain the skin's natural oils. Nails should be trimmed if too long, and teeth will benefit from regular brushing. Most dogs need their ears checked, as dirt and debris can build up and trigger infection. A gentle wipe with a damp cloth is all that's needed. Your Pomeagle will love the attention and will remind you when it's time to be pampered again. |
