What Are Pomapoos Like?
Pomapoos are a designer breed, a cross between a Pomeranian and a Toy or Miniature Poodle. These adorable pups inherit a mix of traits from both parent breeds, resulting in a unique appearance that varies from dog to dog.
Coat and Color Variations
Pomapoos can have a variety of coat types, ranging from straight like a Pomeranian’s to wavy or curly like a Poodle’s. Their coat colors include white, black, brown, cream, red, apricot, sable, and even multi-color combinations. Some have distinctive markings, while others have a solid coat color.
Physical Traits and Appearance
Size and Build:
Pomapoos are small, compact dogs, typically standing between 8 to 10 inches tall and weighing 5 to 15 pounds. Their build can lean toward the sturdy frame of a Pomeranian or the slender physique of a Poodle.
Facial Features:
Their face often features round, expressive eyes and a short to medium-length snout. Some Pomapoos inherit the fox-like face of a Pomeranian, while others have a softer, more rounded look similar to a Poodle.
Coat Texture and Color:
Depending on genetics, a Pomapoo’s coat can be soft and fluffy or curly and hypoallergenic like a Poodle. Regular grooming is essential to maintain their coat’s health and appearance.
What Do Pomapoos Eat?
A well-balanced diet is essential for keeping your Pomapoo healthy. They thrive on high-quality dry kibble or fresh, protein-rich meals designed for small breeds. Look for dog food that includes:
Healthy fats (omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids for a shiny coat)
Fiber and carbohydrates (sweet potatoes, brown rice, or peas for energy)
How Much Should a Pomapoo Eat?
Pomapoos typically require ¼ to ¾ cup of food per day, divided into two meals. Be mindful of overfeeding, as they can be prone to weight gain.

When Do Pomapoos Stop Growing?
Most Pomapoos reach their full height by 6 to 9 months of age. However, they may continue to fill out and gain muscle tone until they are about 12 months old.
Factors That Affect Growth:
Genetics: The size of their Pomeranian and Poodle parents influences their final size.
Diet: A balanced diet ensures proper growth and development.
Exercise: Regular play and walks help maintain a healthy weight and muscle tone.
When Are Pomapoos Full Grown?
Pomapoos are considered fully grown by their first birthday. By this time, they should have reached their adult weight and coat texture.
Changes in Appearance as They Grow:
Coat Texture: Some Pomapoos develop a thicker or curlier coat as they mature.
Color Changes: Certain coat colors, such as sable or apricot, may lighten or darken over time.
