P E T S
Is there a particular diet for Missy or does she just eat regular dog food ? She eats her regular dog food . Apart from that , she loves tuna . If I am in the kitchen and I open up a can of tuna she runs around in circles till I put some in her bowl . She also loves egg yolks . I usually only eat the egg whites so she eats the yolks . There are certain foods that Pomeranians are not supposed to have though , like grapes , almonds and a few more .
It is said that Pomeranians get very attached to their owners and are often very possessive about them . They do not like being on their own either . Is that the case with Missy too ? She is fine when she is on her own . I leave her home sometimes when I go to work . She is all right when I get
20 back . She is used to it . But if I am at home and I leave her in the bedroom to come and sit in the lounge , she goes crazy . She starts barking and scratching the door . I sometimes take her with me to a friend ’ s house who also has a dog . If the dog is sitting next to me , Missy has to squeeze in between us and then she tries to push the other dog away . She is very possessive .
How do you reward Missy when she does something right ? I usually give her dog treats . She loves those !
Like most Pomeranians , does Missy react strongly to change in environment ? She gets very excited when she is in a new place or around new people . I am sure you noticed [ laughs ]. She runs around till she eventually gets tired and lays down flat on the floor .
