Why the Pomsky?
“Designer dogs” can really stir up a controversy among certain people and the Pomsky is the new pup on the block. A lot of people have never even heard of a Pomsky and some who have don’t believe they’re real. Among Pomsky owners and breeders I’m sure we’ve heard it all, from our dogs being called overpriced mutts to people trying to shame us for even trying to create or support a new breed.
Humans began domesticating dogs about 14,000 years ago. Breeds emerged as dogs were selected for various traits like the ability to guard and hunt. Like the many breeds that have emerged since, Pomskies do serve a purpose and fill a niche otherwise unoccupied. Pomskies are meant to be companion dogs and although yes, many companion breeds do indeed exist, Pomskies are unique in the particular traits they possess.
You get a lot of dog in a compact package…imagine the perfect running buddy who loves everyone they meet including children and other animals. A dog that is intelligent, energetic, outgoing and social yet is still loyal to their families and loves a good cuddle. Pomskies are the ideal family and companion dog and their size makes them suitable for smaller living conditions, like apartments. They show great potential to be amazing agility dogs, as well as therapy dogs in various situations.
So many times people have gushed about having huskies in the past or always wanting one, but they didn’t have the room for a large dog. Siberian Huskies are amazing dogs, but Pomskies only improve on them for the purposes of people seeking this kind of dog. Huskies are awesome with children, but sometimes their size coupled with their exuberant nature can be too much for kids. Huskies are also famous for being the friendliest socialite out there…they will literally walk off with a stranger as happy as can be, in other words they’re not the most loyal. When you add in the tiny, affectionate, yet often clingy to a fault, Pomeranian, you really get a perfect balance in a Pomsky. Perfect size, family friendly, loyal without being clingy, as smart as can be and of course adorable!
Although, yes, we are highlighting the good qualities a Pomsky can inherit and posses we realize they can inherit the undesirable qualities as well, like the husky’s love of digging and chewing. This has been a common criticism of the Pomsky, people have pointed out all the potential behavior problems that could arise and made statements inferring that a bad dog was all that could possibly result from a Husky/Pomeranian mix. This is simply not true. Every breed that exists has the potential to be a poorly behaved dog and that has much more to do with how they are socialized and trained, or lack thereof. Pomskies are highly intelligent and if they were to be neglected and unsocialized the potential bad qualities would likely emerge. It has been our experience that Pomskies make wonderful dogs that are smart, affectionate, and outgoing. The owners we have placed our dogs with, however, are responsible and take good care of their pets.
This is all stating things on a very basic level and much more goes into developing a new breed. Not all hybrids are a good idea, and unfortunately the designer dog phenomenon has unleashed a surge of amateur breeders who lack credentials and genetics expertise. For a breed to be successful there needs to be an educated match. Crossing a pug with a Pekingese, for example, could produce disastrous consequences due to their already extreme facial features and inherent health issues. Some criticize that breeding two dog breeds of extreme size difference could result in health risks to the puppies. However, after several interviews with veterinarians and the use of basic common sense this is really a non-issue. Unless of course someone were to try and breed a female Pomeranian to a male Husky, in which case it would be extremely dangerous and no common sense would have been used at all.
As far as the question of the health of the Pomsky, it is a new hybrid and we can’t guarantee that no common health issues will eventually arise. Although somewhat controversial, one might point out the effect of heterosis, which is the improved or increased function of any biological quality in a hybrid offspring. In other words hybrid vigor and Pomskies for the time being would enjoy this hybrid health benefit.
Although we realize this short article may not make a difference in the eyes of the close-minded and stubborn people we encounter, it is our hope that it provides an answer to those who wonder why we do this. We have a great love of animals in general and our fascination with canine breed origins and development runs deep. We look forward to the future of having the best quality Pomskies always.
We are so in LOVE with our pomsky Cora. They facetimed us whenever we wanted, sent pictures and gave us updates daily! I cannot imagine working with anyone else! She really made us feel a part of the family. Precious Pomskies not only gave us our first baby, but a friendship that will last a lifetime. THANK YOU. BEST BREEDER EVER!
I can’t say enough good things about Precious Pomskies. What a great breeder. What a great couple. They give a loving home to their dogs and the babies. By 3 weeks they’re being pee pad trained. She gave us weekly updates on the puppies so we could see them grow before we took ours home. It was a very personal experience. Our Pomsky has made our family complete and we couldn’t be more happy.
Precious Pomskies was AMAZING to work with! She made sure to always keep me in the loop almost on a daily basis. Lexi was so easy to work with, always made the time to answer my MANY questions, and also made me feel comfortable about purchasing a puppy from her as I traveled quite a distance to get my pomsky. Precious Pomskies is an AMAZING breeder and I wouldn’t want to go with anyone else if I wanted a pomsky! Thank you again!
