Pom-A-Poo
Toy · 3–10 lbs
Pomeranian
Bold · lively · vocal
Poodle (Toy)
Intelligent · low-shed · playful
The Pom-A-Poo is a relatively recent American designer cross pairing the Pomeranian — originally a large Arctic sled dog downsized to toy proportions as a fashionable companion in 18th-century Europe — with the Toy Poodle, a breed refined in France as a truffle-hunting and circus performer dog. The combination produces one of the most compact, intelligent toy companions available, with both parent breeds bringing centuries of lapdog refinement to the cross.
The Pom-A-Poo (Pomeranian × Toy Poodle) is a lively, affectionate toy mix with the intelligence of the Poodle and the bold personality of the Pomeranian — compact enough for apartments with just 15–30 minutes of daily exercise. Vocal tendencies are significant (65–82/100 barking), and shedding varies widely depending on which parent’s coat dominates.
Coat can range from fluffy Pom-like to curly Poodle-like. Shedding varies — Pom-leaning puppies will shed more. All are lively and vocal.

Common questions answered before you buy
A Pom-A-Poo is a cross between a Pomeranian (Bold · lively · vocal) and a Poodle (Toy) (Intelligent · low-shed · playful). The goal of this cross is to combine the best traits of both parents — but it's important to understand that results vary significantly from puppy to puppy, even within the same litter.
No dog is truly hypoallergenic — all dogs produce dander, saliva, and urine proteins that trigger allergies. However, the Pom-A-Poo is a coin-flip. Coat can range from fluffy Pom-like to curly Poodle-like. Shedding varies — Pom-leaning puppies will shed more. All are lively and vocal. Puppies with curlier, Poodle-dominant coats tend to shed less. Puppies with wavy or straight coats may shed noticeably. There is no guarantee until the adult coat comes in around 12–18 months. If you're buying for allergy reasons, request an F1B litter which is more consistently low-shed.
Pom-A-Poos typically weigh between 3–10 lbs. However, size can vary significantly depending on which parent the puppy takes after and the generation (F1, F1B, etc.). A smaller parent — particularly if one parent is a Miniature or Toy variant — will produce smaller offspring. Always ask breeders about the parent sizes, not just the breed average.
With consistent effort, yes. The Pom-A-Poo has trainability scores ranging from 68–85/100. Some puppies will pick things up quickly; others — especially those inheriting more stubbornness from one parent — will need more patience. Positive reinforcement and short, engaging training sessions work best.
The Pom-A-Poo typically lives 12–16 years. Hybrid dogs often benefit from "hybrid vigour" — a tendency for mixed breeds to be healthier than either purebred parent. However, they can still inherit health conditions from either parent line. Ask breeders about health testing on both parents (hips, eyes, heart, depending on the parent breeds), and schedule annual vet check-ups throughout your dog's life.
Yes — the Pom-A-Poo is generally apartment-adaptable as long as their exercise needs are met. Daily walks and interactive play sessions (around 30 minutes of light-to-moderate exercise daily) are sufficient to keep them calm indoors. Mental stimulation — puzzle toys, training sessions — is equally important for this intelligent cross.
