History
The Pomapoo is a hybrid dog breed that is a cross between a Pomeranian and a Toy or Miniature Poodle. The Pomapoo was first bred in the United States in the 1950s. The Pomapoo is recognized by the American Kennel Club as a Designer Dog Breed.
The Pomapoo is a small dog with a round head and big, dark eyes. The ears are floppy and the tail is long and curly. The coat of the Pomapoo can be either short or long, and it can be any color or combination of colors.
The Pomapoo is a friendly, intelligent, and playful dog breed. They are good with children and other pets, and they make great companion dogs. They are also low-shedding and hypoallergenic, which makes them good choices for people with allergies.
Pomapoos were first bred in the United States in the 1950s. However, the breed almost became extinct in the 1970s due to a lack of interest from breeders. In recent years, there has been a resurgence in popularity for the Pomapoo breed, and they are once again becoming popular as companion dogs.
The ancestry of the Pomapoo dog is unknown; however, they are thought to be descended from Asian Spitz-type dogs. The Pomeranian is thought to be one of their ancestors, as well as the Toy or Miniature Poodle. From these two breeds, the Pomapoo inherits its small size, intelligence, and low-shedding coat.
The Pomapoo was first recognized as a breed by the American Kennel Club in 2006. However, they are still not recognized by all kennel clubs worldwide. Nevertheless, the popularity of this hybrid dog breed continues to grow each year.
