Question
i have a pom and when i bought her , iwas introduced to the mom and dad but since i have had her she is bigger than her mom and dad at 9 months ..she is almost 12 pounds ...Did i get robbed and she is not a purebred even thouhg the papers say she is?..she has all the characteristics of a pom ..But she just seems so much bigger than most of the pictures i have seen?

Answer
The Pom has been bred down from a 45 lb dog in Germany and
there is a big difference in the gene pool on size.  Which
can explain why your girl is larger than her parents.

Did you buy her for a pet and if so she will be just as
nice as the smaller Pom and probably more healthy as
the little ones have more health problems.
