What is the best shampoo for Pomeranians?

Answer 1

When you need to shampoo your Pomeranian, use either a mild conditioning shampoo that also moisturizes, such as Hartz Oatmeal Shampoo, Sensitive Skin, or waterless dry shampoo, as regular shampooing can cause the dog to lose the natural oils in his coat. If you must shampoo with wet shampoo, keep shampooing to a minimum so you don't dry out the hair and skin. Pomeranians are prone to dry itchy skin, it's important to keep their natural oils intact.

Pomeranians are constant shedders and their long coats must be brushed frequently to keep them from getting tangled and matted. In addition, regular brushing helps prevent dandruff, which can be a problem with Pomeranians, and leads to itchy skin. However, if you brush the Pomeranian properly, starting at the head, parting the hair and brushing it forward, it will fall right into place. Pomeranians are very heavy shedders, so brushing them every day will also help you keep the hair at bay.

It's also important to clean the teeth of a Pomeranian because they (like many other small breeds) are prone to dental problems. It's best to brush your dog's teeth daily, but if you can't then do it once or twice a week. Your vet should look at your dog's teeth and gums at each visit.
