Female Pomeranian temperament

As with males, individual personality matters more than sex, and early socialization shapes a lot of it. Owners often describe female Pomeranians as smart, self-assured and a bit more independent. Many girls are affectionate on their own terms: they will seek you out for a cuddle, then go do their own thing. They are frequently quick learners and can be very focused in training.

Female Poms often take a more watchful role in a multi-pet home, and some can be choosy about canine friends. Early, positive meetings with other dogs help.

Girls can be a great fit for owners who enjoy a dog with opinions. Many respond beautifully to clear routines and puzzle-style games, and their focus makes them fun partners for trick training or beginner agility once they are fully grown and their joints are mature.

Size and coat

Females are often a touch smaller and finer-boned than males from the same lines, though there is plenty of overlap. One real difference is coat: intact females commonly shed heavily after a heat cycle or after having puppies, so an unspayed female's coat may look thinner at times. Our Pomeranian size and weight chart covers typical growth.

Heat cycles and spaying

Unspayed females usually come into heat about twice a year, starting somewhere in the first year or so. During a heat, which lasts a few weeks, you will notice swelling and spotting, and you will need to keep her away from intact males. Many families choose to spay, which ends heat cycles. When to spay is a decision to make with your veterinarian based on her size, health and your circumstances.

House training girls

  • Females generally do not leg-lift or mark the way many males do, which some owners find simpler indoors.
  • Small bladders still mean frequent trips out. Start a schedule from day one.
  • Reward heavily and keep sessions short; Poms bore easily.
  • Teach a quiet cue early, since girls can be just as vocal as boys.

Female or male?

If you already have a female dog, a male companion often makes for the easiest pairing, though many same-sex pairs do well. If marking is a concern, a female may suit you. For the other side of the comparison, see our male Pomeranian puppies page.
