Exercise Needs of Pomeranian

This petite dog likes exercises and play sessions to sustain its high energy levels. Take your Pomeranian for a walk as a daily exercise. Plan for two brisk walks daily that favor the dog's short legs.

Avoid taking your dog for a walk when it’s hot outside because they are sensitive to heat. Also, don’t push this little pup to run or play hard since they have moderate energy. But that doesn't mean they stay idle to avoid negative behaviors.

Schedule short playtimes outside when it’s cool. Your Pomeranian will enjoy chasing balls or play toys. These canines also like playing with toys indoors. Provide a couple of toys that offer a mental challenge, like puzzles. Supply them with toys of different colors and textures to keep them engaged.

• House training – Engage the dog in potty and crate training
• Control their negative habits – Pomeranians bark loudly, making them the best watchdogs. But, sometimes, they bark unnecessarily, so it’s best to train them when to bark.
