How did you find Missy and how long has it been since you have had her ? It has been 5 years since i have had Missy . I got her from a pet shop here in Dubai , which imported her from Thailand .
What is Missy ’ s daily routine like ? She doesn ’ t really have a set routine . How it usually works is that she has a bowl of wet food and a bowl of dry food around all the time . She just eats whenever she wants . Her training pads are always laid out . If I am out and not back in time , she will just go and sit there . She pretty much looks after herself .
Do you walk Missy yourself every day ? Yes , I take her out every day in the morning and in the night . During summer , in the heat , we just go around the building , as she gets too tired . If I take her for a longer walk , she lays down flat on all fours and doesn ’ t move . Then I have to pick her up and walk back . However , when the weather is cooler , she is fine with a long walk .

Like other dog breeds , do Pomeranians also need proper exercise ? Not really . When I got Missy and did my research on her breed , I read that their legs are not very strong so you shouldn ’ t put too much stress on them . That ’ s one of the reasons why I don ’ t take her out for a long walk .
How did you find the time to potty train Missy with your busy schedule ? When I had not started my own company and was working somewhere else , I had enough time to train her . By the time I got busy with setting up my own business , she was already properly trained .
How do you ensure she is being taken care of while you are at work ? I usually just leave her at home while I am away , as I get to have many breaks during work , so I can manage to see her at home . However , if I plan to stay out for long , I drop her off at a day care for dogs .
