The Pomeranian dog breed is descended from sled dog of Iceland and Lapland . The dogs were later bred to be smaller and to be house pets. So, though a toy breed, Pomeranians are also inclined to be energetic and active. Nonetheless, thanks to their small size, they can still live in an apartment. They have a sharp bark which they tend to let loose while acting as guard dogs. Due to the breed's small size, contact with small children should be supervised to keep the dogs from getting hurt. Remember that breed only provides a general clue as to any individual dog's actual behaviour. Make sure to get to know dogs well before bringing them into your home.
