Different Colors and Markings
This area is to show you some examples of all the different colors and markings of Pomeranians
(Poms pictured are not available for sale)
Beaver
Beaver, a diluted form of brown, comes in shades from cream-beige to orange-brown. It resembles orange but stands out with liver nose pigment, paw pads, and eye rims, lacking any black hairs or pigment on the body.
Black
Black dogs typically have a solid coal-black appearance, with consistent black guard hairs all over their body. Outdoor exposure may cause some reddening, and the undercoat may lighten before shedding. The points, including eye rims, nose, lips, and pads, are black.
Black and Tan
Black and Tan Pomeranians are black Poms with rust or tan pattern markings. The points including eye rims, nose, lips and pads should be black.
Brown/Chocolate
Brown, or Chocolate, ranges from dark to light shades. True chocolate dogs have no black anywhere on their body; features like eyes, nose, and foot pads are brown, not black.
Blue/Silver
Blue is a solid light to dark grey color with a bluish cast. Blue puppies are born silver or appear black, developing a silvery grey undercoat and a darker slate blue top coat. Some may seem black until seen next to true black, and their points are blue.
Brindle
Brindle features stripe overlays on a base color, which can be any solid color with strong black cross stripes. Stripes may vary in width and coverage, appearing broken in the longer adult coat.
Cream
Cream is a pale orange, liver, or yellow color, even throughout with no white or black in the coat. The top coat might appear slightly deeper due to the texture of guard hairs.
Cream Sable
Cream sable dogs have a lighter coloring than orange sables with black sabling. They may appear silvery as puppies and, as adults, have a cool cream color instead of a warmer orange.
Merle
Merle is a pattern that can appear on any base color like chocolate, black, blue, or orange, resulting in a wide range of possible combinations in Pomeranians.
Orange
Orange coats in Pomeranians range from light to deep, almost reddish. Newborns may appear brown, leading to the misconception of being sable, but their coat becomes progressively more orange as they mature. They often retain black hairs on tail tips and have black whiskers.
Parti-Colors
Parti-color Pomeranians have varying white markings, ideally with patches of color distributed on a white base. A white blaze on the head is preferred, and the patches can be in any solid color, all being the same.
Red
Red Pomeranians have a deep rust color, resembling a dark orange but richer in red tones. They consistently have black points on their nose, eyelids, lips, and paw pads.
Tri-Color
Tri-colored Pomeranians have a tan pattern and a white parti coat, featuring three colors instead of two. They may resemble a black & tan but with a distinctive white base coat.
White
Pure white Poms are rare. An all-white Pomeranian should be solid white without lemon or cream shadings, including white guard hairs and undercoat. Dark or black eyes are essential for a white Pom dog. The white Pomeranian color is one of the original breed colors.
Wolf-Sable
The coat of a wolf sable Pomeranian consists of a light gray undercoat and the guard hair is a darker gray ending with black tipping.
