Recently, small and even dwarf dog breeds have become more and more popular. Their representatives, even as adults, are more like soft toys than full-fledged dogs. However, their cost is often much more than that of large dogs, since it is largely due to capricious fashion. These breeds include dwarf spitz.
Features of the breed
All representatives of this decorative breed are distinguished by a lively and cheerful character, activity and curiosity, devotion to the owner. But often dwarf Spitz are jealous and their loyalty to all family members may not extend, so this breed is not very suitable for families with children. The Spitz is an excellent companion for a person living separately. He does not get along very well with other pets either, because he is egocentric and loves to get all the attention to him.
Despite its thick and long coat, this dog is not difficult to groom. Its fur does not fall into tangles, and to maintain its luxurious appearance, it is enough to periodically comb it out with a special brush, however, during the shedding period, this will need to be done several times a day. This will also help reduce the amount of hair remaining on furniture and flooring. You need to bathe the Spitz with a special or baby shampoo, but not more often than once a month.
Either because Pomeranians are really very trainable, or they are driven by the desire to always be in the spotlight, but these dogs quickly master all sorts of new tricks and repeat them without any compulsion or even delicacies, remembering the enthusiastic reaction of others. Naturally, the process of close contact with the owner during training is a pleasure for them and they master any command in one or two lessons.
They adore walks and never ask for "handles", like other representatives of small breeds. They especially like to combine a walk with training or with the performance of various "tasks".
How much will you have to pay for a miniature spitz
This breed is quite expensive, and this is due not only to fashion, but also to the fact that bitches, in general, give birth to only 1-3 puppies. Of course, as for any other breed, the cost of a dwarf spitz will depend on the show regalia of the parents and on the qualities of the puppy itself. If this is a culling, even a puppy card is not issued for such a puppy, and you can buy it inexpensively. Puppies with an irregular bite, an ungrown fontanelle, cryptorchidism, an undeveloped ear, or both, defects in color, fall into culling. Of course, these defects will not affect the character of the dog.
In the event that the puppy fully meets the requirements of the breed standard, its price starts from 30 thousand rubles. The average cost of such a dog is 50 thousand rubles. Pomeranian dwarf spitz "bear" type are more expensive than German, "fox" type. A bitch will cost more than a dog.
