Pomeranian – Everton Park

EXCEPTIONAL POMAPOO PUPPIES - POMERANIAN X TOY POODLE EMPIRE PUPS AU Beautifully raised, affectionate little companion puppies from our proven Nala x Teddy pairing - a pairing we loved enough to repeat. Born 4 September 2026, these gorgeous F1 Pomapoo puppies are being raised inside our family home with extensive handling, socialisation and exposure to everyday family life. One of the special things about this litter is that we already know what this pairing can produce. We have included photos of a now-grown puppy from Nala and Teddy's previous litter, giving families a genuine example of how beautifully their puppies can mature. The adult dog pictured is from their previous litter and is not for sale. His coat has been groomed in the photos. WHY WE LOVE THIS PAIRING Nala is our beautiful Pomeranian girl with a gorgeous fluffy coat and a confident, affectionate personality. Teddy is our Toy Poodle, bringing intelligence, trainability, affection and the Poodle coat influence that can contribute to a lower-shedding coat. One of the attractions of the Pomapoo is the potential for a lower-shedding companion than a Pomeranian while retaining that gorgeous soft, fluffy teddy-bear appearance. As these are first-generation Pomapoos, coat type and shedding can vary between individual puppies and cannot be guaranteed. Together, Nala and Teddy produce gorgeous little companion dogs with expressive faces, plush wavy coats and wonderfully people-focused personalities. HEALTH-TESTED PARENTS Both Nala and Teddy have undergone DNA health testing and are clear for the conditions included in their testing panels. Health and temperament are at the forefront of our breeding decisions. We don't breed solely for colour or appearance - our aim is to produce healthy, well-tempered family companions. THE PUPPIES This litter includes a stunning variety of merle, chocolate and black/black-and-white puppies: Oreo Milo Truffle Cookie Hershey Their individual personalities are beginning to shine through, and we're happy to help families choose a puppy that may best suit their household. Expected adult size is approximately 5-8 kg, although adult size cannot be guaranteed. RAISED AND SOCIALISED IN OUR FAMILY HOME Our puppies are raised inside our home as part of everyday family life - not isolated from the normal sights, sounds, people and animals they'll encounter once they leave us. From an early age we introduce gentle, age-appropriate handling and desensitisation. We practise puppy paw play and regularly handle their paws, toes, ears, mouths and bodies so grooming, nail clipping, vet examinations and everyday handling aren't unfamiliar experiences. Their nails are maintained from an early age to help them become accustomed to having their paws handled and nails trimmed. Our puppies are introduced to a wide variety of people including children, adults, elderly people and unfamiliar visitors. They also have appropriate exposure to large and small dogs and the normal activity and noises of a busy family household. We put considerable time and care into giving our puppies positive early experiences and the foundations to become confident, adaptable and well-adjusted family companions. EACH PUPPY LEAVES WITH Veterinary health examination Microchip Age-appropriate vaccination Regular worming 6 weeks complimentary pet insurance where eligible Puppy take-home information Feeding and settling guidance Ongoing breeder support from Empire Pups AU PRICE: $3,800 A deposit secures your chosen puppy, with the balance payable before collection.

*Regrettably sale* Ziggy is a 3.5 year old black Pomeranian. He is great with kids and very cuddly. Ziggy is not desexed and weighs 2.5 kgs. I am needing to relocate and downsize to an apartment which I am finding very difficult to secure with a dog even though he is smaller than most cats. Ziggy will be best suited to a family where someone is home all the time to be with him and he will attach himself to one person and he will follow you around as he wants to be with his person as much as he can. No time wasters and I will want to make sure that he goes to a loving and caring home as he is my one and only and purely selling him as I have no other options

George is a beautiful and loving Pomeranian dog. He is fluffy and has a ton of character packed in a tiny package. However, our family circumstances have changed and we cannot take care of him anymore, therefore, this is a reluctant sale.

Contact us if you would like to learn more, see more photos, or if you would like to schedule a viewing of George and his parents.

Pomeranian – Yarrabilba

Regretful rehoming of my beautiful purebred Pomeranian, Kida. She is a loving, loyal, sweet 2-year-old girl who absolutely adores her humans. She is toilet trained, knows basic commands, waits patiently for food and treats, and even sits and waits at pedestrian crossings on walks. She loves tug of war, cuddles, and being close to her person. Kida is gentle and prefers to avoid other dogs, so she would be best suited to a single-pet home where she can receive all the love and attention she deserves. She has grown up around children and is easygoing and playful. She can live inside or outside but prefers to sleep indoors at night and be close to her family. She would thrive in a calm, loving home where she is treated as part of the family. This has been an incredibly difficult decision, so finding the right home is very important to me. Genuine enquiries only, please. She will come with all her belongings including carrier, harness and leads, bowls, treats, and outfits.

White coloured Pom Maltese mix looking for a loving new home. This sweet dog enjoys around two hours of play each day and has been fed good quality food. He sleeps indoors and is used to being part of the family, making him a great companion for someone who can give him time and attention. He has been microchipped and vaccinated as advised by the previous owner. He is friendly, affectionate and enjoys human company. Sadly, we need to rehome him due to rental restrictions that no longer allow pets. We are hoping to find a caring home where he will be well looked after and loved.

The Ultimate Pomeranian Guide

About Pomeranian

Let’s face it — few dogs know how to steal the spotlight like a Pom. They’ve got that winning combination: looks that melt you on sight, brains that keep you on your toes, and a personality that turns heads wherever they go. Whether they’re perched on a couch like royalty or trotting proudly down the footpath, they’ve got a way of making people stop and take notice.

Origins

Pomeranians trace their roots back to the Spitz family — a group of dogs that still carry echoes of their wild ancestors. With their thick coats and alert expressions, it’s not hard to spot the distant wolf in their DNA. These dogs didn’t start out as the pocket-sized companions we know today. They were once working animals bred for colder climates, pulling sleds and herding livestock across snow-covered landscapes.

The name “Pomeranian” comes from a stretch of land near the Baltic Sea, where breeders began reducing their size to something a little more manageable for indoor life.

In their early form, Pomeranians were no lapdogs. They tipped the scales at over 13 kilograms and were often used for herding flocks. They were commonly pale in colour — often bright white — and built for function over flair. The likely ancestor? A type called the Deutscher Spitz, known for its sturdy frame and no-nonsense temperament.

But everything changed when royalty got involved. Queen Victoria, during a visit to Italy, brought home a small, smoky-grey Pom. She became so taken with the breed that she began breeding for size — the smaller, the better. Over the course of her reign, Pomeranians didn’t just shrink — they halved in size and exploded in popularity.

And it wasn’t just royals doting on these fluffy charmers. Throughout history, Poms rubbed shoulders with some rather brainy company. Martin Luther, Michelangelo, and Isaac Newton all kept one close. Whether they were pacing through palaces or napping in candle-lit studies, Pomeranians knew how to carve out their place in the lives of those who mattered.

Key Characteristics Of Pomeranians

Are Pomeranians Family-Friendly?

Yes. Pomeranians fit perfectly into family life. They relish playtime and exude friendliness.

Common Health Issues & Considerations

Pomeranians may suffer from:

Collapsing trachea.

A condition characterised by the weakening and flattening of the tracheal rings, leading to difficulty breathing and a distinctive honking cough.

Hypothyroidism.

Elbow luxation.

A dislocation of the elbow joint, often resulting from trauma or congenital abnormalities, leading to lameness and pain in the affected limb.

Hydrocephalus.

A condition characterised by an abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid within the brain’s ventricles, causing increased pressure and potentially leading to neurological issues.

Nature / Temperament

These dogs are inquisitive, alert and bold. Pomeranians like being the centre of attention.

Suitable Environment

Pomeranians flourish in both urban and rural settings.

Other Considerations

  1. Pomeranians flaunt a lush fur coat. Though they no longer pull sleds, they retain their warm, double coats. Their fur requires diligent care to avoid tangling or matting.
  2. They interact well with other animals and are known for their affectionate and loyal nature.
  3. Pomeranians shouldn’t be left alone for long periods, as this can trigger separation anxiety.
  4. They come in an array of colours, including black, brown, white, cream, and orange.

How can I take good care of my Pomeranian?

Nutrition

When it comes to mealtime, Pomeranians don’t need much — but what they do eat should be worth its weight in gold. You’re looking at roughly a quarter to half a cup of high-quality kibble per day, served up in two sittings.

Splitting their meals helps with digestion and keeps that little engine of theirs ticking along smoothly. Feeding them properly isn’t just about topping off the tank — it plays a big role in dodging future health problems that can sneak up if you’re not paying attention.

Grooming

Brushing them at least twice a week keeps the fluff at bay and stops knots from sneaking in. The trick is to start the routine while they’re still young enough to see it as normal, not a personal attack.

Exercise

Don’t let their size fool you — Poms have brains that don’t sit still for long. A daily stroll around the block and a short burst of play at home usually does the trick. They’re not built for marathons, but they do thrive when they’ve got something to think about and a chance to burn off their zoomies.

Training

Pomeranians are sharp as tacks and love to show off when they know they’re on the right track. They respond best to kind-but-firm leadership — someone who sets boundaries without being bossy. Keep your training sessions short, sweet, and structured.

Most Asked Pomeranian Questions

These are tiny, fluffy dogs that have wedge-shaped heads and small ears. The wedge shape of their heads and the muzzle contribute to this dog’s fox-like appearance.

Their skull is somewhat rounded and their eyes are almond-shaped.

Pomeranians for sale cost between $1,500 and $3,000 approximately.

Yes, compared to other dog breeds. But their undercoat only sheds fully two times in a year. During this time, they will have more grooming needs.

As they have low exercise requirements, they are suitable for apartment living. But they do better in families with older kids or teenagers. They need to be handled with care because of their small size.

Yes, they are friendly to both people and animals. But they sometimes display this ‘big-dog’ attitude. This can be disastrous if they attempt to jump from a high place or chase bigger animals. To prevent this, they should be monitored closely
