Criteria for Selecting the Right Pomeranian Breeder
Dog breeding estates differ significantly in ethics and attention to animal welfare. It is crucial to understand these differences and the adherence to ENCI ethical standards to make an informed and responsible choice for your Pomeranian.
- 1
The Importance of Sires & Dams and Ethical Breeding
Regrettably, some breeders prioritise profit over quality, exploiting dams or selecting only for rapid reproduction without careful genetic or temperamental evaluation. In such contexts, dogs often lack adequate attention, socialisation, or interaction, compromising their psychophysical development and the quality of the breed. This approach stands in stark contrast to ethical and responsible reproduction. - 2
Work Quality and Breeder Transparency
Before choosing, it is fundamental to evaluate whether the breeder respects the ENCI standard and reflects the environment and care you desire for your dog. A high number of followers or years of experience do not always guarantee quality or respect for animal welfare. It is therefore crucial to delve deeper, verify, and, if possible, visit the premises personally to ensure that practices are ethical and aligned with your expectations. - 3
The Value of the ENCI Breeder Community
ENCI regularly organises events and exhibitions where breeders can exchange views and improve their skills, maintaining high focus on the state of the breed. Although Casa dei Pomerania does not participate directly in these events, we recognise their importance for the growth and improvement of the sector. These contexts offer precious opportunities to observe breeding standards and choose with greater awareness, identifying serious breeders who receive recognition for the quality of their work.
Warning: "Toy" Scams, Imports, and Forged Pedigrees
The Pomeranian market hides many pitfalls: from the false "Toy" myth to illegally imported puppies placed in local litters.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know to choose your future companion with confidence.
How can I find a reliable Pomeranian breeder?
To identify serious breeders, we suggest three certified channels: our selected recommendations on this page, the official section of the ENCI website dedicated to breeders with a prefix (Visit the ENCI page), and the specialised portal Pomeranian Blog (Visit Pomeranian Blog). Contact us for information, clarifications, or assistance.
What criteria should I follow to choose the right breeder?
Professionalism and courtesy during the first contact are fundamental: the breeder will be your point of reference for the dog's entire life. We recommend preferring professionals who have completed the ENCI Master Breeder course for technical competence and, obligatorily, premises equipped with ASL authorisation, an essential guarantee of hygiene, health, and animal welfare.
Are home-based breeders a good choice?
No. Breeding in a purely domestic context does not guarantee the technical and sanitary requirements necessary for correct selection. Often, the domestic dimension caters to the breeder's cost-saving logic rather than the dogs' actual ethological and safety needs. A professional breeding estate offers dedicated premises and rigid health protocols.
Is years of experience a synonym for quality?
Not always. The longevity of a business is not the only metric of value. It is more important to evaluate the constant updating of the breeder's knowledge, their attention to the genetic and mental health of the sires and dams, transparency regarding health tests, and the quality of assistance services offered over time.
Why are dog shows important even for private owners?
Exhibitions organised by ENCI are fundamental because they allow expert judges to certify that the dogs comply with the breed standard. Purchasing a puppy from sires and dams that attend shows guarantees you a dog that is morphologically balanced and temperamentally typical of the Pomeranian breed.
Can I purchase a Pomeranian without a pedigree if I won't be competing?
No. According to Italian law and international cynology, without a pedigree, a dog is not purebred. Only this document certifies genealogy and guarantees that the puppy has inherited the physical and temperamental characteristics of the Pomeranian. Without a pedigree, you are purchasing a crossbreed that merely resembles it, devoid of guarantees regarding the selection of ancestors.
