Welcome to the exciting world of the Pomsky!

The word Pomsky comes from combining “Pomeranian” and “Husky”. Cleverly creating the name of “Pomsky”. This is the most popular name given to a cross between a Pomeranian and a Siberian Husky.
The most well-known hybridization of the Pomsky is exactly that; the cross between a Pomeranian and a Siberian Husky. It is important to mention that a Pomsky can also be a hybrid of a Siberian Husky and any smaller Spitz breed.

Our Ideal Pomsky:

The ideology of the Pomsky is to produce a small Pomeranian sized dog, with the colouration of the beautiful Siberian Husky. This is achievable with much dedication and careful selection of breeding adults for health and beauty alike. Below are the traits and attributes we breed and strive for in our Pomskies.

Energy Level:

The energy level and exercise needs of the Pomsky can vary, depending on the adult size of the Pomsky and from which generation of breeding it belongs to. The larger a Pomsky is, the more space and exercise is required. The average exercise needs of a Pomsky should be 1-2 hours of exercise per day; easily achieved by two 1 hour walks. Please note the average dog (and person) requires a minimum of 1 hour of exercise per day. More is always welcomed and encouraged, as a healthy lifestyle for you and your pet benefits you in many ways. The intensity of the exercise will vary on the attributes mentioned above. We encourage plenty of running exercise during the 1-2 hours required. Were you aware that mental exercise can play a role as well? During inclement weather, try mentally stimulating your Pomsky by learning a new trick, or playing a fun game inside, that requires a bit of thinking.

Markings and Colours:

The Pomsky hybrid comes in an array of colours and markings. The most sought after colour and marking combination is the popular Siberian Husky colouration of Grey/White body markings with the typical mask. We love this combination and find our other colours and markings just as beautiful. The Pomsky can come in an array of beautiful colours such as; Black, White, Grey, Brown, Red, Copper, Blue Merle, Wolf Sable, Blonde and much more. The typical mask of the Siberian Husky may or may not be present on a Pomsky. We excel at providing stunning pure White Pomskies. Are you searching for a specific colour and marking combination? Let us help you find the perfect puppy. Please view pictures of our Available Puppies found on our Puppies page.

Eye Colour:

Pomskies have a magical variation of eye colour. The most stunning colours we offer are: Blue, Green, Amber and Brown. We even offer Pomskies with unilateral coloured eyes; meaning each eye is a different colour. Also available is partial colouration of the iris with splashes of another colour.

Fur and Coat:

The Pomsky has a double thickness fur coat and is plush as it is soft to the touch. The Pomsky has a thickly haired tail that hangs back over the rump, with a slight curl to one side. The double thickness of their fur coat means that there are two hair densities and lengths present on the body. The hair closest to the body is thicker and shorter, forming the “under coat”. These hairs are packed together, providing insulation against the heat and the cold. The under coat protects the skin from sunburn, as well as keeping the skin hydrated.

The “over coat” or “guard hairs” is the top layer of the fur coat and those hairs are longer, stronger and coarser. These hairs are much fewer in number than those found in the under coat. The guard hairs protect the body from dirt and snow and are used in body language displays. The under coat of the Pomsky is typically shed 1-2 times per year, in what is called a “under coat blow-out”. The period of shedding for the under coat is short, but intense. The Pomsky sheds the majority of the thicker, shorter hairs within 2-3 weeks. Daily brushing during this period will help eliminate shed hairs from being found around the house. The Pomeranian has in general a thicker and longer fur coat than a Siberian Husky.

Yet the Pomsky has a fur coat similar to the Siberian Husky, with slightly more density. The Pomsky rarely has the extremely thick coat of a Pomeranian. Brushing and grooming requirements of the Pomsky is low to minimal. We recommend a full body brushing 1-2 times per month, with more frequent brushings around the face and behind the ears, where hairs are finer and the odd tangle may occur. The double thickness fur coat of the Pomsky is an excellent deterrent for dirt/dust/wetness and is generally self-maintaining. Were you aware that your new puppy will give himself a bath by licking his fur in order to keep himself clean, much like a cat.

Size and Weight:

The joy of the Pomsky hybrid is that every litter and generation offers something a little bit different. The size and weight of a Pomsky varies depending on a number of factors; the generation of Pomsky, the size of their mother and father, the litter size and their gender. In Siberian Huskies, the size difference between mature males and females is quite noticeable -with some females being 2-3 inches shorter and up to 15 lbs. lighter. With Pomeranians, the males and females are similar size, with no real variation between the two sexes. In our Pomskieswe find that there is a slight size difference between males and females, with males being slightly heavier and taller.

First generation Pomskies are also known as the first filial generation or “F1 generation”. This means that one parent is 100% Siberian Husky and the other parent is 100% Pomeranian, resulting in offspring being 50% Pomeranian and 50% Siberian Husky. F1 generation Pomskies vary in size, as one would imagine, as there is a large size difference between the two parents. Some puppies will take on more of the Siberian Husky size and characteristics, while some puppies will take on more of the Pomeranian size and characteristics. On average an F1 Pomsky will weigh between 10-25lbs. Rarely are puppies below 10 lbs. and above 25 lbs. for this generation. By the age of 6 weeks old, better estimates of the weights of individual puppies are available.

Second filial generation or an “F2 generation” Pomsky is the breeding of an F1 male to an F1 female. This generation is smaller and will provide puppies with more predictable sizes and markings. F2 generation puppies vary in size from 10-20lbs, depending on the parents who have been breed. We are actively working towards offering Pomskies under 10lbs in weight and will have some amazing puppies available soon. Please note that the weights and sizes of puppies cannot be guaranteed, as larger or smaller puppies may results from this hybridization. We strive to place appropriately sized puppies to match the lifestyle of their new owners and often puppies are not placed up for adoption until 6 weeks old, to better gauge the final adult size.
