Overview The Pomeranian is a unique breed. He has a thick double coat that can be found in a huge variety of colors. A Pom can be solid, parti-colored two colors or tri-colored three color combination. The Pomeranian is a toy sized breed with a square compact body, small erect ears and a thick, plumed tail. This breed certain stands out among many other dogs, including toy breeds.
Those familiar with the Pomeranian will always spot the breed immediately. However, if a person is not very familiar with the breed, there are some other dogs that can be mistaken for a Pomeranian. Some breeds - most apparent with dogs that are closely related to the Pom - will have a comparable appearance in regard to the coat and body structure.
With others, it will be the size and weight that allows for a comparison. However, as you will see none have all of the special traits of a Pomeranian.
Since the Pomeranian is in the Spitz family of canines, we'll first look at other Spitz dogs. It is thought that Spitz dogs originated in either the Arctic region or Siberia or both. Due to the very cold climate, most will have thick double coats. Other traits that they have in common are pointed ears and similarly shaped muzzles. The two biggest differences between other dogs in the Spitz family and Pomeranians are that others will be larger in body structure and often be very limited in coat color.

Coat color is the other big difference since Pomeranians can be found in a multitude of colors but the Keeshond can only be found with gray, black and cream coats. Hairs may have black tips sabling as Pomeranians can have. Long ago, breeding of the German Spitz broke off into different groups. One group of dogs were refined to have white coats and a variety of sizes, giving us the American Eskimo Dog and another group was developed to have a multitude of colors and only a toy size, giving us the Pomeranian.
The American Eskimo Dog will have a very similar coat to the Pom in regard to texture being a double coat with outer guard hairs. In regard to color, this breed only can be found in white and biscuit cream, which is perhaps the biggest difference of all since Pomeranians can be found in over 20 colors if you count possible markings.
