Cream Spitz: features of color, conditions of keeping puppies
When choosing a dog, owners of city apartments often pay attention to small pets. The most popular choice is the cream-colored Spitz. These pets look extremely friendly and have a pleasant appearance, which is why they are often purchased as a gift for children. Due to its small size, such a dog can be easily taken with you and transported from place to place. In addition, a cream-colored dog will perfectly emphasize the secular status of its owners and make their life brighter.
Features of the breed and color
The Pomeranian was bred in Germany, and then improved by breeders in England. Its weight ranges from 3 to 5 kilograms, depending on age and genetic capabilities. Height - about 23-25 centimeters at the withers. In total, there are three main Spitz colors - black, white and cream.
The latter is especially popular with breeders for a number of reasons. The cream shades are very neutral, so the dog will not stand out among the general decor and will be pleasing to the eye, unlike the representatives of the black color. White Spitz look too unnatural, and because of the peculiarities of their coat, they are also quite easily soiled, which is why the owner has to constantly wear them on his hands outside the house.
The cream color is the most natural and does not require special attention from the owner during a frisky walk.
Due to the peculiarities of the appearance, the Spitz from the side looks more like a toy than a real dog. They are characterized by a neat, slightly elongated fox face, dark round eyes and a thick undercoat.A fluffy collar and tail are especially common in dogs.
Cream Spitz are usually born very light, as their color is fully developed after the first molt. Sometimes the breeders themselves do not know whether the puppy will remain white or in the future the adult dog will acquire a cream color. Also, as a result of crossing, cream-colored dogs can differ in light color of the eyes and nose, which gives them an even more cute and adorable look.
It is currently difficult to find a dog with a true delicate cream color. The most common Spitz are mixed, whose coat has an overflow from a rich red to a smooth light cream color. There are also representatives with gray overflow or blotches of black wool.
In addition to the classic Pomeranian, also it is recommended to pay attention to cream-colored dogs of such types as bear and puppet. The first type is characterized by a shortened muzzle, and the second - an overly cute appearance, thanks to which the Spitz looks even more like a toy. The latter option is especially relevant for purchasing as a gift for children.
Character
Despite the charm of such a small dog, at heart they are very brave and brave creatures who need adventure. This is why breeders especially recommend them as best friend to children. These dogs love to play.
In addition, aggression is unusual for the Pomeranian even in the most enthusiastic game with his little master.
The owners describe their puppies as noisy and restless - the dogs love to walk and explore new places... Thanks to these qualities, they will become excellent companions for active city dwellers who love to get out into nature and work in the fresh air.
Despite their small size, the Spitz have a loud voice that they will not be afraid to use in their daily life in a game with the owner or in his defense. This should be taken into account by those who live in an urban-type apartment with poor sound insulation. In order to temper the passionate nature of these little pets, it is necessary to understand their needs well and be able to satisfy them in time - whether it is an exhausting game in the fresh air or a timely dinner.
Spitz can only be kind to their master. Most of them are very distrustful of strangers, therefore, despite their cute appearance, they can bite a person who wants to touch someone else's pet, thereby expressing their displeasure.
These dogs are believed to have a flexible mind., but, they are difficult to train due to their restless nature. They are quickly distracted by something more interesting.
Also, dogs of this breed are distinguished by a high degree of loyalty. They are ready to do anything for the sake of their master and are often sad when they remain alone for a long time.
Selection of a nickname
The peculiarities of the breeding of this breed are such that purebred dogs at birth receive a passport with a ready-made nickname, which can have more than 30 letters in it. This method makes it possible to track the pedigree of dogs in the future. This nickname is "official" in nature and, as a rule, is not used by their owners in everyday life. After the purchase, the owners give their pet a new sonorous nickname.
How to name a girl
The cream-colored Spitz-girl is especially charming. That is why in the selection of nicknames for them, the owners give preference to more affectionate and "sweet" names. Especially often the names of famous women are used for this, for example, Chanel, Tiffany, Twiggy and others. They are also often called in honor of fairy-tale princesses - Snow White, Cinderella, Belle, Rapunzel, etc.
Since the dogs are distinguished by a lively mobile character, they are often given similar sonorous nicknames - Chita, Julia, Totti, Barbie, Gabby.
Simpler names are also popular, for example, Princess, Snowball, Shumka, Puma, Push.
How to name a boy
Restless boys respond only to short and sonorous nicknames. Among the most popular are Patrick, Duke, Caesar and Hector. Spitz boys also often carry names of different goodies, such as Cupcake, Latte, Donut or Chocolate.
And the owners, distinguished by humor, often give their pets grotesque names - Rimbaud, Robocop, Elvis, Confucius, etc.
The main thing when choosing a nickname is not only the desire of the owner, but also the readiness of the dog to respond to its newly acquired name. That is why, when choosing it, you should take into account the reaction of your pet.
