no matter how hard you look, you can find no cuter poms, then at robins wee bears (760)955-2823

exercise & GAMES THE POM IS A VERY A VERY ACTIVE DOG. HE NEEDS DAILY ACTIVITY. A DOGGIE DOOR TO A SECURE OUTSIDE YARD IS IDEAL. IF A YARD IS NOT AVAILABLE, THEN A DAILY WALK WILL BE NECESSARY. YOUR POM WILL LOVE THESE WALKS, AND THEY WILL BE FUN FOR YOU TOO. YOU WILL MEET MANY NEW PEOPLE, AS COMPLETE STRANGERS ARE TAKEN WITH THE BEAUTY OF YOUR  POM, AND ASK YOU ABOUT YOUR DOG. ANOTHER  WAY TO EXCERCISE YOUR PET IS WITH GAMES. FETCH AND FISBEE CATCH ARE THINGS YOUR POM CAN DO. FOR THE MORE ADVANCED, THERE IS HERDING AND AGILITY. ONE OF OUR POMS LOVES TO HERD THE GEESE, AND NOTHING IS CUTER THEN SEEING A BALL OF FUR FLY OVER A JUMP. ONE OF ALASKA'S SONS IS AN AGILITIY DOG.

THE LOST POM THE FENCING MUST BE VERY TIGHT, BECAUSE A POM CAN GO THROUGH VERY TINY HOLES. A POM PUPPY CAN WALK RIGHT THROUGH A CHAIN LINK FENCE AS IF IT IS NOT EVEN THERE. FENCING MUST BE AT LEAST 4 FOOT HIGH. SOME POMS HAVE BEEN KNOW TO CLIMB A 6 FOOT FENCE. WARNING:  BECAUSE YOUR POM IS SUCH A CUTE LITTLE DOG, POM ARE ONE OF THE MOST STOLEN BREEDS OF DOGS. IT BREAKS MY HEART WHEN PEOPLE CALL ME CRYING OVER A LOST DOG. MAKE SURE WHEN YOUR DOG IS OUTSIDE THAT STRANGERS DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO YOUR DOG. KEEP ON A LEASH IN PUBLIC. DO NOT LEAVE IN CAR ALONE. EVEN OZZIE OSBORNE'S POM WAS STOLEN. MICROCHIPPING IS RECOMENDED FOR POSITIVE IDENTIFICATION, AND ABSOLUTE PROOF OF OWERSHIP. WE WILL MICROCHIP YOUR PUP, BEFORE PURCHASE FOR A $25 FEE.

shipping WE SHIP TO MOST PARTS OF THE UNITED STATES. WE USE CONTINENTAL AIRLINES, AND HAVE BEEN VERY HAPPY WITH THEM. PUPPIES MUST BE 8 WEEKS OLD, AND OVER 1 1/4 POUNDS TO SHIP. I WILL NOT SHIP THE LIL TEACUPS UNTIL 12 WEEKS OF AGE. THE COST OF SHIPPING IS $225. THIS INCLUDES CRATE (WITH TOY & CHEW STICK), VET CHECK, AND AIRLINE FARE. I SHIP FROM ONTARIO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.

SIZE THE POM VARIES IN SIZE GREATLY. SHOW STANDARD, IS A DOG FROM 3 POUNDS TO 7 POUNDS, WITH 4 TO 5 POUNDS BEING IDEAL. TEACUPS AVERAGE FROM 2 TO 3 POUNDS. MOST BREEDERS USE FEMALES THAT RANGE FROM 5 TO 10 POUNDS, WITH 6 TO 8 POUNDS BEING IDEAL. WHICH SIZE POM IS RIGHT FOR YOU DEPENDS ON YOUR LIFE STYLE. IF YOU HAVE YOUNG CHILDREN, I FEEL YOU SHOULD HAVE A DOG OF AT LEAST 5 POUNDS, AND 8 POUNDS IS MORE IDEAL. SMALL CHILDREN CAN BE VERY RUFF. IF YOU STAY HOME, HAVE ONLY OLDER CHILDREN, THEN YOU MIGHT WANT A TEACUP. THINK ABOUT YOUR LIFESTYLE BEFORE YOU BUY.

FOOD & HYPOLYCEMIA WE TRY TO MAKE SURE THAT YOUR PUP IS EATING DRY FOOD BEFORE IT LEAVES. THIS CAN BE HARD WITH TEACUPS.  WE FEED EUCANUBA TOY BREED, DRY FOOD. THE DRY FOOD IS BETTER FOR THE PUPPIES TEETH, AND HAS MORE NUTRITION THEN WET   FOOD. FOOD MUST BE LEFT 24 A DAY WITH PUPS UNDER 6 MONTHS. THEIR STOMACH'S ARE SO SMALL THAT THEY MUST NIBBLE ALL DAY. HYPOLYCEMIA IS LOW BLOOD SUGAR. HYPOLYCEMIA IS CAUSED BY SMALL PUPS NOT GETTING ENOUGH TO EAT, OR POOR NUTRITION. A SMALL PUP CAN GET HYPOLYCEMIA BY GOING WITHOUT FOOD FOR AS LITTLE AS 2 OR 3 HOURS. SYMTOMS ARE HYPOTHERMIA, (BODY TEMPATURE DROPS), DILIATED PUPILS, DEPRESSION, DISORENTATION, A DRUNK LIKE STUMBLING, WITH THE PUP UNABLE TO STAND UP, CONVULSIONS, THEN DEATH. THE JAW WILL LOCK, UNABLING THE PUP TO RECIEVE FOOD. ONCE A PUP GETS HYPOGLYCEMIA IT IS MORE PRONE TO GET IT AGAIN. IF YOU THINK A PUP HAS HYPOGLYCEMIA, MIX 1 TABLESPOON OF SUGAR IN 4 OZS OF WARM WATER. GIVE ORALLY 6cc TO 9 cc, BY SYRINGE WITH NEEDLE REMOVED OR EYE DROPPER SLOWLY, MAKING SURE PUP DOES NOT CHOKE. THE JAWS MAY HAVE TO BE PRIED OPEN, SO PUP CAN SWALLOW. IF THIS IS THE PROBLEM, IMPROVEMENT SHOULD BE SEEN IN 15 MINUTES TO A 1/2 HOUR. IF NOT RUSH TO VET. SOME PEOPLE FEEL THAT GIVING NUTRI-CAL 3 OR 4 TIMES A DAY WILL PREVENT HYPOLYCEMIA. I HAVE SEEN THIS TO CAUSE VERY SORE BLEEDING GUMS FROM TO MUCH SUGAR. THE BEST CURE, IS PREVENTION WITH GOOD FOOD.

VACCINES & SHOTS WE GIVE  THE PUPS THEIR FIRST SHOT AT 5 WEEKS. THAT IS A PROVO, ALL BY ITSELF WITH NO OTHER VACCINES. THIS GETS THE PUPS SYSTEM READY TO RECIEVE FURTHER SHOTS. AT 6 WEEKS, WE GIVE THE FIRST PUPPY SHOT, WITHOUT CORNA. AT 7 WEEKS WE GIVE A CORNA ALL BY ITSELF. AT 8 WEEKS WE GIVE A PUPPY SHOT WITH CORNA. THEN WE GIVE SHOTS EVERY 2 TO 3 WEEKS, UNTIL THE PUP IS 16 WEEKS OLD. THE PUPS ARE WORMED AT 5 WEEKS, 6 WEEKS, AND 7 WEEKS. DOGS ARE GIVEN SHOTS YEARLY, AFTER 16 WEEKS, AND WORMED TWICE A YEAR. CAN YOUR PUP GET PROVO IF IT HAS HAD IT'S SHOTS? UNFORTUNATELY,  YES. THIS HAPPENS MUST OFTEN BETWEEN 8 AND 10 WEEKS, WHEN THE IMMUNITY FROM MOM WEARS OFF. USUALLY AFTER 12 WEEKS, THEY ARE SAFE. UNTIL THEN, DO NOT TAKE YOUR PUP IN PUBLIC. HAVE EVERYONE WASH THEIR HANDS BEFORE TOUGHING THE PUPPY, AND DO NOT PUT THE PUP ON THE FLOOR. PROVO CAN BE BROUGHT IN ON THE SOLES OF PEOPLES SHOES.

WATER POMS LOVE WATER. I GET CALLS FROM WORRIED OWNERS ALL TIME THAT THEIR POM WILL NOT STAY OUT OF THE WATER DISH. WHEN THEY DRINK THEY PUT THEIR FRONT FEET IN THE BOWL, OR THEY WALK THROUGH THE BOWL WHEN DONE DRINKING. THE BEST THING TO DO IS GIVE A RAISED BOWL TO DRINK FROM IN THE HOUSE, AND A LARGE DISH, DISH WASHING TUB, OR A PLASTIC CEMENT MIXING TUB OUTSIDE TO PLAY IN. THEY WILL ROLL IN IT, DIG IN IT, OR SCRATCH OUT WITH THEIR HIND FEET, IN THE TUB. WATER WILL FLY EVERYWHERE. MAKE SURE BOTH DISH AND TUB ARE IN AREAS WHERE WILL NOT HURT ANYTHING. LIKE MOST KIDS THEY HATE BATHS.
