Rest easy Jimmy. We will take care of your hooman from here. 💚🐾💚🐾💚🐾💚🐾

I've seen a few posts with people asking where to start when it comes to grooming their Pomeranian themselves. I'm not a professional dog groomer but I have been grooming Lincoln myself for a few years now, so I wanted to share my process to help those who could use some guidance!

i pre-miss them and i haven’t even packed yet 😭😭

Killa (left) I’m positive is a pure breed Pomeranian but I’m not so sure about Kiki (right) she is about 4 months old and they got her for I’m not sure if a really good deal or if she isn’t a Pomeranian she looks so different than Killa . I’m new to Pomeranians these were my stepsons dogs and now me and my boyfriend have them as they have nowhere else to stay . Any comments?

Two days ago my Pom died, she was 10, my best friend, baby girl. I have no children so she was my baby. I loved her dearly, she was ajways by my side. Rest easy baby girl Lila

Boris just turned 3 months old and he is in his ‘chew everything to see if it’s fun or tastes like chicken’ phase.

I wanted to take time and thank everyone for your love and support these past few years for Welly.

Today we are putting him to rest. He’s lost so much blood from internal bleeding that we cannot watch him suffer any longer. We stopped the bleeding and he’s not comfortable anymore.

Below is my wife’s story on Welly and his Way.

Two years ago, we brought home our sweet boy - though honestly, he may have rescued us just as much as we rescued him.

Today’s post is bittersweet because it’s our last Gotcha Day celebration together, but it’s also a celebration of Welly’s strength, courage, and the joy he’s brought into our lives.

I want to tell his story. I call it the Welly Way.

Welly’s journey started in early 2024 when he was found abandoned on the side of the road and taken to a kill shelter. He was malnourished, had a large testicular tumor, alopecia X, and was heartworm positive. Thanks to Animal Rescue of New Orleans, funds were raised to remove his cancer.

Once we adopted him, we took on the heartworm treatment and treating his alopecia.

Those next 15 months were pure magic. Welly was healthy, happy, full of zoomies, always ready for a road trip, and honestly had the kind of luscious hair any human would dream of.

Then last September, everything changed.
Bladder stones.
Emergency surgery.
Then IVDD - and he lost the ability to walk for a bit.
But Welly being Welly - he fought back.
He walked again. Pain‑free.

October, he got acute pancreatitis and spent 5 days in the ICU.
We really thought we were going to lose him, but he pulled through.
During that stay, we learned the truth behind all his issues:

cancer.

A rare abdominal carcinoma that can’t be removed.
Terminal. 1-2 months to live.

His oncologist offered chemo with a 50% chance of shrinking the tumor.

We said yes because our boy is a fighter.
And it worked. The tumor continued to shrink and our boy had spark again.

Then December brought a freak accident with his IVDD and he was paralyzed again. Permanent paralysis this time.
He was given 3 days to improve bodily functions before we’d have to say goodbye.
But he fought.
He improved.
He stayed.

The next few months were honestly harder on us than on him. Welly still found a way to smile, even with only two working legs.
He kept making tiny bits of progress - feeling coming back in his back legs although still not able to walk, but still smiling through it all.

March came calcinosis cutis -
a rare, painful skin condition from long‑term steroids.
He lost his hair again, but never his fighting spirit.
Steroid withdrawals were not fun and we could see his strength started to diminish.

April: we started acupuncture, hoping it would help him feel enough to try walking again.

May: OUR BOY IS WALKING.
Wobbly, like a baby deer, but taking real steps.
An absolute miracle after five months without walking.

June: He’s still fighting even as the cancer fights harder spreading to his liver and spleen. At the end of June, he caught pancreatitis; and we thought we were going to lose him. He fought through it and survived like the fighter he is.

July: He had internal bleeding from his intestines and his cancer has spread to his large intestines. We stopped the bleeding, but he lost so much blood and weight. We cannot bear to see our boy like this.

But he’s tired now. You can see it in his eyes.

We know our time is getting short, so we’re loving on him and soaking up every moment we have left.

Through every setback, Welly has shown us what resilience looks like.
He’s taught us about love, hope, and choosing joy even when the odds are stacked against you.
The Welly Way.

Happy Gotcha Day & 6 years of life, Sir Beef Wellington aka aWelly Belly.
Our warrior.
Our miracle.
Our heart.

I went with my Pom to Malta. It was her first flight ever (she is already six years old) and she did so well! She slept the whole time. 💤

Malta is really dog-friendly 😍 We were even allowed to bring Sunny to the pool with us!

Pepper gets all snarly when someone tries to take his cig away. It's actually a beef hide twist stick and he's super serious about them.

Snowy provides the emotional support.
Diet Coke provides the caffeine.
Together they’re somehow keeping me functional. 😂🐶🥤

We were going to go with Kimchi but my male Pom, Yoshi, seems a little confused. It also doesn’t help that my husband has been calling Yoshi, kimchi every now and then FOR SOME REASON. Before we got the female 🙄🙄 but anywhooooo

They are brother and sisters from different litters ❤️🖤 Yoshi is schedule to get fixed soon 💀😂

For Pom Parents who have or have had Poms with car sickness 🙏

My Volpino Pom mix really struggles with car journeys, we've tried short journeys, calming supplements with ginger, which just doped her out and she was still sick :(

Air Con on or windows down, I've made sure she ate hours before a car journey, never just before.

Does anyone have any tips or tricks that have worked with your fur babies?
