What Pomeranians are like to live with

The Royal Kennel Club calls the Pomeranian "the smallest spitz and a favourite of Queen Victoria". It says the breed was bred down from the German Spitz, was first seen in the UK in 1870, and became popular thanks to royal patronage, "its dainty appearance and extrovert character".

That describes the breed, not one dog. A rescue Pomeranian is an individual and may be a cross. The rescue knows how this particular dog behaves at home, on the lead and with visitors, so ask them.

Size and exercise

The Royal Kennel Club lists the Pomeranian as small and needing up to 30 minutes of exercise a day. It lists a flat as a suitable size of home, with a small or medium garden, in town or country.

Grooming

The coat is medium length and sheds, and The Royal Kennel Club suggests grooming more than once a week.

Health

The Royal Kennel Club asks Pomeranian breeders to have eyes tested. It lists the breed's lifespan as over 12 years, and says the breed can be affected by conformational concerns (problems linked to body shape).

A rescue dog's parents may not have been health tested, so ask the rescue what vet checks the dog has had and whether any condition is known. Your own vet is the right person to advise on anything you notice later.

Children, cats and other dogs

Whether a particular rescue Pomeranian can live with children, cats or other dogs depends on the dog, not the breed. Go by the rescue's own assessment, which is often noted on the profile, and ask what kind of home they think suits it.

Breed descriptions are general. Every rescue animal is an individual, so the rescue's own assessment of the animal comes first.

Pomeranians in England: your questions

How many rescue Pomeranians are available for adoption in England?

As of 30 September 2026, 3 Pomeranians are listed for adoption in England on LocalPetFinder, from Battersea Dogs & Cats Home and Dogs Trust. Each profile links to the rescue, and you apply to adopt with them directly.

Are there Pomeranian puppies for adoption in England?

Not right now: none of the 3 listed in England is under a year old by its listed age. Puppies do get listed, so check back or look at the adults, whose rescues can tell you much more about their character.

Can a Pomeranian live in a flat?

Yes, the breed can. The Royal Kennel Club lists a flat as a suitable size of home for a Pomeranian, which needs up to 30 minutes of exercise a day. Ask the rescue whether this particular dog would be happy in a flat.

Do Pomeranians shed?

Yes. The Royal Kennel Club says the Pomeranian sheds and suggests grooming its medium-length coat more than once a week.

How much does it cost to adopt a Pomeranian in England?

Each rescue sets its own adoption fee. Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months and £275 for a puppy under six months, Dogs Trust charges £300 for a puppy or adult dog in England, Wales and Scotland, and Blue Cross fees start from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over and £335 for dogs aged 1 to 7. The fee usually covers neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations, and each rescue confirms its own fee.

Are there Pomeranians for sale in England?

No. We don't list animals for sale. Every Pomeranian on this page is with a rescue or rehoming centre, and rescues rehome animals rather than selling them, usually for an adoption fee: for example, Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months and Dogs Trust £300. The fee usually goes towards vet work already done, such as neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations. In England, Lucy's Law has meant since 6 April 2020 that puppies under six months can't be sold by a third party such as a pet shop or dealer: you buy direct from the breeder or adopt from a rehoming centre.

Can I get a free Pomeranian in England, or one under £500?

Usually not. UK rescues normally ask for an adoption fee, which pays towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations. Many rescue fees are under £500: Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months, Dogs Trust £300, and Blue Cross from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over. An animal offered "free to good home" is usually a private advert rather than a rescue. All dogs in the UK must be microchipped by 8 weeks old, and in England, Wales and Scotland a dog can't pass to a new keeper until it is chipped, so ask to see the microchip details.
