They are easier to house train than most Toy breeds, however. A few chew sticks lying around will stop them from damaging the furniture. They enjoy being groomed and cared for, and many Pomeranians relish going to shows. They will chase strange cats, given half a chance, but they will get on with cats and other pets that live in the same house, and often play with them. Because of their size and smiling faces many people who are otherwise not too keen on dogs find them very attractive.
Female dogs are less likely to yap than males.
Pomeranians make good watchdogs, and are generally not frightened of even the largest Great Dane. Top place goes to Border Collie, bottom place to the Afghan Hound. I do not know on what basis this information was constructed, but Pomeranians are not really obedience dogs, and develop their own characters. This doesn't make them less intelligent, indeed it is one their strong points.
