A Maltese Pomeranian Mix, will most likely have just as much grooming necessities as a Pomeranian so you want to be readied to spend some time on the necessary grooming.
The Coat
Pom’s have a double coat that requires daily care as it can easily get matted. The soft undercoat is light and fluffy and very thick. The longer top coat is sleek like long hair. Daily brushing is required to keep the fur free from matting and looking it's best. Weekly baths should be given as well as proper grooming around the feet and under the tail.
The Eyes
As in most small dogs, the Pom can have a buildup of tear “gunk” in the corner of the eyes. This can stain the fur and be a bit messy so it is recommended that you clean the eye area every other day or at least once a week. You can buy a special liquid that will help remove the stains and wipe away any goop that has accumulated with a q-tip. Be careful not to poke your pom in the eye when you are doing this!
The Teeth
Unfortunately, Pomeranians can be prone to tooth problems. Tooth loss and bacterial buildup is not uncommon in these little dogs so you should take extra care to make sure your pet has the proper dental care. Brush your dogs teeth daily with a specially formulated enzymatic tooth paste that fights bacteria and have yearly dental checks and scaling if necessary. Tooth care is quite important to your dogs overall health as if bacteria is left unchecked in the mouth, it can spread throughout the dogs body and cause health problems for your pet.
Feet and Nails
Like any other dog, Poms need to have their nails trimmed. There are 2 basic types of clippers and you will need to find out which one works best for you. You should also trim the hair on your dogs feet as it has a tendency to grow out pretty fast. The preferred cut is the trim it close so the paw resembles that of a cat.
