The Guide to Owning A Pomeranian.......2001-10-12
Excellant book for the first time or well seasoned pomeranian
owner. Lots of tips and information in layman terms. Being
a pomeranian breeder I intend to recommend this book to everyone
as a must have.
Highlights Many Different Topics & Concerns Regarding Poms.......2000-08-21
Many pet books that are currently on the market are full of fluff and sound like they could be about any breed of dog. However, Ms. Ellmann has written a wonderful guide to Pomeranians. She highlights on the history of Poms, the proper way to choose a pup, housebreaking, training, grooming, and general health care of Poms. She also gives great information about how to show your dog if you desire to do so. It's not a guide that goes very in-depth, but in my case, it's a great book to get started learning about Pomeranians. One of my favorite features of this particular book are the stunning pictures that are throughout it. I definitely recommend this Guide To Owning a Pomeranian!

Pomeranian Genetics.......2000-07-08
The New Pomeranian has an extensive chapter on the genetics of the Pomeranian breed. More importantly, it has examples of color genetics that insure that breeders will be able to "plan" their litters based on the colors they wish to do selective breeding for. I have not found a better book on dog color breeding or Pomeranians in general. The conformation drawings are sure to help novice and experience breeder alike rate their puppies for the show ring.
history,care and breeding of Pomeranian dogs.......1998-08-31
This well written book has detailed information on breeding and genetics, and wonderful line drawings of conformation and grooming. There are no color photographs, but the quality of the text and line drawings more than makes up for that.

Nice book- by Alyssa (VA, USA).......2007-06-05
Hi.
I'm getting a pom soon and this book seems really nice for a new owner. I can't wait until I get my baby pom!
Yesterday at a ballgame me and my cousin got to pet someone's pomeranian. She was so adorable and would let anyone pet or rub her. She would also lick your finger or nose. She was just precious.
I think poms have baby doll faces. They are just soooooooooooooo cute.
When I get my baby this will be a nice book to have. Good source for info on all things pom.
HAPPY SUMMER!
Pom book.......2007-03-20

Nerw POM books........2007-02-16
Very nice book and covers the POM subject very nicely. Very good buy.
Easy to read - Excellent Grooming Instructions!.......2004-11-08
As a first time pom owner, grooming had to be one of the most intimidating challenges that I faced. This book not only describes in great detail how to groom your new dog, but has excellent pictures for those of us who need a little extra help. It also includes in depth feeding and medical instructions that made me feel much more educated when I brought Precious home for the first time. I was extremely impressed with the knowledge put into this book and would highly recommend it to all new pom owners - it has everything you could ever need!
Stunning Pom pics - easy to read - Pom-specific Vet advice........2003-08-25
This book just arrived, and we immediately read it completely through. First off, the pictures are STUNNING!
Scattered throughout the book are full page personal stories of Pom owners, and one or two of them are quite sad.
Most of them are upbeat, though - and they will all touch your heart!
Although written by an experienced Pom judge and breeder, this book is intended as an instruction manual for new Pom owners.
It also serves well as a reference guide for owners not familiar with how to deal with Pom-specific issues like excessive barking or grooming the Pom's thick coat.
It is written in a clear, easy to read style (we couldn't even detect a British accent!)
And, the health section is written by a veterinarian, specifically for Poms! Nearly all the medical sections of the Pomeranian books we've seen were written as generic dog health guides - so this is a refreshing change!
We give this book 5 stars, and highly recommend it!
Book Description
A diminutive dog with a distinctive foxy expression, the Pomeranian was derived from larger German spitz dogs and cultivated by the British to become the stylish, beguiling companion dog he is today.

This colorful book provides accurate information about Poms and their ancestry, character and standard, as well as puppy selection, feeding, grooming, housebreaking, obedience training, showing and preventative health care.
In addition to an authoritative, comprehensive text, this book presents over 135 photographs in full color, which prove to be as informative as they are attractive. Helpful hints and important information are highlighted to provide easy access to everything the reader needs to know about living with a well-trained, happy Pomeranian.

Was somewhat satisfied.......2006-06-26
Most of the info. given in the book was the history and typical looks of the breed. We were looking for other answers such as why Pom's are known to spin circles, why they cling to one person, etc.

Pomeranian book.......2005-07-31
this book is maily about getting a pomeranian but it doesn't really focus on the measurement of the crate, collar, etc. i bought this book b/c i thought it would answer all my questions but it didn't. also, it doesnt tell you much about how to groom or bath your pom or about the shedding. i had to go to the library and borrow another book which was much more helpful. if you want a lot of information about poms, do NOT get this book.
Seemingly comprehensive not at all.......2004-05-16
To a person uneducated about Pomeranians, you could think that this covered it all. But I bought this book in concurrence with my first Pomeranian and discovered it really wasn't all it says it is.
If you want to know about dog origins, temperment, AKC standards and cute doggy pictures it's okay, but as far as puppy care it is as basic as it gets. Stuff ANY puppy book would tell you.
Because I have looked at a lot of sources, but am a first time Pom owner, the main thing that tipped me off about this lack, is the medical chapter-which briefly describes what all puppies are vaccinated for and common puppy problems, completely failing to note hypoglycemia! Which is a SERIOUS COMMON health problem for anyone owning a toy dog.
Don't buy it
This is a small book, packed with information........1998-07-30

One of the best-- very informative........2007-08-21
This book is fantastic. I got my first Pom earlier this year, and have been collecting a library of Pom books. This one is by far the best. It has pretty much everything you need to know about owning & caring for a Pom. Every once in a while I cross reference to another Pom book, but generally this one is right on with what is best & most up to date! Very informative without being too biased, too.

A good basic guide for a new pomeranian owner........1999-06-24
The Essential Pomeranian, while only 92 pages long, contains a great deal of useful information for someone that is either a first-time dog owner or just new to the breed. But even if the information is already known, the pictures alone almost make the book worth the purchase price! It is full of adorable color illustrations. Besides, a pomeranian fancier can never have enough books about the breed!!
