Breed Information

Overview

Before adopting a Pomsky, you should compare the lineage breeds and see if their personalities will match your own. While the Siberian Husky is a fantastic family pet, it is also heavily prey-driven and will need extra limitations to stay on track. The Pomeranian, however, would much rather take a nap on the couch or enjoy a night in with a movie. With Pomskies, you will often get a mixture of the two, so finding out what suits you will be important while making this decision.

The Pomsky, also sometimes called a Huskeranian, is a cross between a Siberian Husky and a Pomeranian. The goal of this cross is to capture the best traits of both breeds along with the beauty and personality of the Siberian Husky in a more manageable size.

For people who love Huskies and need a smaller dog, the Pomsky is often the perfect fit. Although the Pomsky is not currently recognized by the American Kennel Club, one of the facts about Pomskies is that they are recognized by other official organizations like the Pomsky Club of America, International Pomsky Association, and more.

Temperament

Pomskies are known to be cute and adorable comedians. They are small, energetic dogs with big personalities and a zest for life. They tend to be sensitive, affectionate, and thrive on being the center of attention, which fits well with their silly and playful antics. They get along well with children and other dogs, but tend to be a better fit for older children. Because a Pomsky is a small dog and an even smaller puppy, they can easily be injured by the accidental falls or rough play which can happen with younger children who are still mastering motor control. All interactions between young kids and puppies should be supervised. Pomskies tend to make good watchdogs as they are alert and vocal. Both of their parent breeds are known to be quite vocal; Pomeranians for their barking and Siberian Huskies for their vocalizations. So, a Pomsky will let you know when they see something.
