Which dog breed is right for you?
The Pomeranian descends from large sled-pulling spitz dogs of Iceland and Lapland, selectively bred down to toy size in the Pomerania region of northeastern Europe during the 18th and 19th centuries — Queen Victoria famously popularized the smaller variety. These tiny dogs weigh just 3 to 7 pounds and stand 6 to 7 inches tall, yet carry themselves with unmistakable confidence. Their magnificent double coat — a dense undercoat beneath a profuse, standoff outer coat — comes in nearly every color and pattern imaginable, with orange and red being most popular.
Pomeranians are vivacious, bold, and surprisingly commanding for their size — they have no concept of how small they are and will happily try to boss around much larger dogs. They are devoted to their owners and can be excellent companions for singles and seniors, though they may be too fragile and snappy for homes with very young children. Poms are intelligent and curious, learning tricks quickly, but they also have a strong independent streak inherited from their spitz ancestry.

The Treeing Walker Coonhound was developed in the United States from Walker Foxhounds in the mid-20th century, selectively bred for their exceptional ability to trail game and "tree" raccoons by chasing them up a tree and baying until the hunter arrives. These elegant, athletic hounds stand 20 to 27 inches tall and weigh 50 to 70 pounds, with a lean, muscular build and the classic tricolor pattern — white, black, and tan — reminiscent of their foxhound ancestry. Their short, smooth coat is dense and protective, well-suited for long hours working through brush and rough terrain.
Treeing Walker Coonhounds are confident, intelligent, and affable — possessing a friendly, sociable nature that makes them enjoyable companions both in the field and at home. They are gentle with children, typically welcoming to strangers, and usually get along well with other dogs, especially those they've been raised with. Their hunting instincts run deep, however, and they can switch from couch potato to tireless tracker the moment an interesting scent crosses their path.
