Pomskies are a crossbreed between a Pomeranian and a Siberian Husky. Since the first born Pomsky in 2009, this designer mixed breed has been gaining in popularity with dog lovers across the United States and throughout the world as breeders continue to achieve the perfect mix. Being a descendent of two highly active parents, Pomskies have a lot of energy and require a lot of exercise. These highly intelligent dogs make for great companions, though their double coat with longer hair means they aren't the best for dog owners with allergies.
Appearance and Grooming
The Pomsky is a small/medium-sized dog with a beautiful silky coat that many dog lovers find endearing. Though, because of their thick coat they have the tendency to shed quite a bit. Regular brushing will reduce shedding, especially during the warmer months, when shedding is at its peak. Their colors vary from white, black and grey, similar to their Husky ancestors.
Temperament
They have a friendly and playful nature that requires a moderate amount of attention. They are very loyal and eager to please and therefore, don’t like to be left alone for long periods of time as they can become very bored and may show signs of aggression.
Family and Companionship
It can be hard to predict what personality characteristics a Pomeranian Husky mix will inherit, and so this breed is best suited for households made up of adults and/or older children. They have a highly energetic personality and will thrive with an active family who enjoys the outdoors. Because of their generally small size this breed is adaptable to living in an apartment or in a larger home.
Exercise
These lively puppies need a lot of mental stimulation and exercise. They are an active breed that adapts well to its owners routine. They require a short to moderate walk along with active playtime each day. If given enough proper exercise, this small and mighty dog can often be athletic enough to participate in dog sports as agility, obedience and rally.
Training and Socialization
Pomskies are intelligent with a streak of independence, which may require more patience than most dogs. This can prove to be quite challenging for even the most experienced owner. Training and socialization is as important for the dog as it is its owner and should begin at a very early age.

When I first visited premierpups.com about 10 months ago I was scrolling through the site and although I'd never owned a dog before I knew that my wife had always hinted at liking Pomskys and I was started to come around to the idea. Then while scrolling I came up on the name Jedi and knew that it was meant to be. I contacted premierpups and they were very easy to work with and quick with communication. We received Jedi about a week later as they ship on Thursdays. Picked him up from the airport and everyone in the first class priority shipping group had already fallen in love with the guy and were sad to see us take him home and away from them. He just had his 1st birthday yesterday and so far he is such a great little guy. When he showed up he was about 8-9 lbs and now he is around 25 and healthy and smart. He hasn't been sick once and is very smart and has learned tricks that include sit, lay down, stay, spin, speak, paw, fetch, and is currently working on roll over. We bring him every where that we can and he gets along with other dogs well and loves kids. I would absolutely recommend Premier Pups, he came with the paperwork, a decent travel crate, some toys and had food and water. They may be a bit on the higher side for price but you get what you pay for and I was very happy with what we got and will come back to them again when the time comes to possibly add a brother or sister to the mix.

Love at first sight! I was definitely super hesitant in purchasing her from a website and because they’re located across the U.S, but let’s just say it was the best decision ever. She brings so much affection and energy into my life. She absolutely loves children, playing ball, and getting in her mini pool! Absolutely would recommend the pomsky breed to anyone who enjoys being active. Also need to add that the pick up process was so easy and quick! Aside from that, they give you all the essentials with instructions. Definitely appreciate the check up calls days after pick up as well. Happy Dog Mom!

We picked Maddux up Fall of 2018. He is our first family dog and we couldn’t be happier. It took 19 years to talk my husband into getting a puppy. I started looking at Pomskys and showing him pictures and he started to soften to the idea. I was on this site scrolling through pictures and came across a little puppy named Flint. He said that is the cutest puppy and after a couple of days, we had ourselves a puppy. We had some confusion at the time of pickup but the staff did everything they could to make it right. Maddux is an amazing dog and he fits in perfectly with the family! I would recommend Premier Pups. The only regret is that didn’t ask for pictures of his parents.

We were a little apprehensive about buying a puppy online but Premier Pups put us at ease. They were so quick to respond via phone or text to any questions that we had and were quick to send pictures and videos while we waiting for the arrival of our puppy. We had her flown to Florida and the airport pickup was seamless, and they were right on time. She arrived happy, healthy, and full of energy. In the days that followed, after we got her home, Premier Pups reached out to us numerous times to make sure she was adjusting well. This was such a great experience and we would definitely come back to them for our next puppy purchase.

| Breed: | Pomsky |
| Client: | Mary S |
| Loc: | Rhode Island |
My boyfriend and I had been researching getting a pomsky puppy and we were led to Premier Pups. After looking at multiple puppies (I wanted all of them lol), we decided on a cute little guy named Addis (currently named Atticus). The staff at Premier Pups made the process of buying a puppy a great experience. They were very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. We drove to Ohio to pick up our pup and could not be happier with our decision! Atticus is such a good boy….very clever, smart, loving and playful! He is great with people (including children) and other animals (he thinks everyone we come across on our daily walks is there to see and play with him lol)! He has brought so much joy to our lives and we truly adore him! After we brought Atticus home, Premier Pups followed up with us several times to ensure that Atti was doing well and transitioning properly. I highly recommend Premier Pups to anyone looking to buy a puppy. They are wonderful and we will definitely be getting another puppy from them in the future!!

My family and I welcomed Kaya (formally Jackie), an 8 week old Pomsky puppy, into our home last week. Premier Pups was amazing throughout the whole experience. When I first found their website, I was very skeptical about it. I emailed them probably a thousand times, and spoke to them on the phone a few times. I promise you, they are legit. After choosing the puppy we wanted, the process was easy. Kaya was flown to us on delta airlines and when I picked her up from the cargo center she was so sweet and friendly. She came with food, a care package, precautionary medicine, a harness and leash, vet papers, a toy, crate and mat. I was over the moon to finally have her! She has only been with us for just a few days but has settled into our family so perfectly. She a sweet fiery pomsky puppy and we couldn’t be happier! I recommend premier pups 100% to anyone who is having any second thoughts. I would definitely purchase from them again.

Last year I had an early Christmas present and he went by the name JR. It was love at first sight! He is a very activate puppy,super curious , smart and loves going for walks, playing with all of his toys and his dog friends. I renamed him Cas and he brings me so much joy and happiest each day! I remember I was really skeptical about ordering him online and hundreds of things could have went wrong but honestly everything went really smoothly. He was a happy and healthy puppy, it was a long journey to California but he is at his forever home and he is happy.

I was living in Austin Texas when I got her, her name was Destiny. She was sent to San Antonio airport for me to pick her up. I remember walking up to the Delta desk, the guy was in front of her cage filling out paper work on her. He turned around and looked at me, I looked at her and was so happy I cried. He then knew I was there for her. Her name was Destiny, and I feel like that is appropriate because I think it is destiny that brought us together. I renamed her, but kept part of it. She will turn two tomorrow, and I love her more and more every day!
