Rescue Story
Bam-i was rescued from a municipal shelter just before euthanasia. Now she’s ready to leave her past behind and find the loving family she deserves.
Loves People
If you’re looking for a true companion, Bam-i is your girl!
She absolutely adores people and happily greets both familiar faces and strangers. She loves rubbing against people for attention, enjoys being picked up with an arm under her belly, and once she trusts you, she’ll even roll over to show you her tummy. Belly rubs are one of her favorite things!
Dog Social Skills
Bam-i can live around other dogs, but she would much rather have people all to herself.
She tends to get annoyed by dogs that invade her personal space and often warns them first by growling or barking. While she has never been observed getting into an actual fight, she could react if another dog challenges her. She generally does well with calm dogs of similar or smaller size, and with larger dogs that simply ignore her, but she isn’t particularly fond of large or overly playful dogs.
She may also growl or bark at other dogs when she’s being held by her person, so adopters should be mindful of this behavior.
She would likely be happiest as the only dog in the home, or with a calm, respectful canine companion.
Cats
Her behavior around cats is currently unknown, but a cat test can be arranged upon request.
Energy Level
Bam-i has a moderate energy level. She enjoys walks and outdoor adventures, then happily relaxes and naps once she’s back home.
Walking
She’s an experienced walker who follows her handler nicely without pulling on the leash. Rather than stopping to sniff everything, she’s more of a “let’s keep going!” kind of girl.
More About Bam-i
No food guarding with people or other dogs.
She shares toys well, although she may engage in a little posturing if another dog is possessive of toys.
She can be vocal when she wants something or feels frustrated, using barking to express herself.
She may have some separation anxiety, although this has not been confirmed. As with many rescue dogs adjusting to a new home and a long international journey, adopters should be prepared for the possibility and help her settle in with patience and routine.
She may whine or bark briefly when first placed in a crate, but she settles down after a short time.
She is currently accustomed to doing her business outdoors.
Bam-i is a sweet, affectionate little Pomeranian who wants nothing more than to be close to her people. She’ll thrive in a home that understands her preference for human companionship over canine socializing and will reward her family with endless love, cuddles, and adorable smiles.
