Pomeranians as puppies have a high probability of developing skin diseases. Usually, they experience itching, and in severe cases, even total hair loss. Humans feel discomfort when bitten by mosquitoes; similarly, it is heartbreaking when little dogs suffer from skin diseases. So when a Pomeranian accidentally contracts a skin disease, what should we pay attention to?

After we discover that the dog has a skin disease, the first thing we need to do is clean the dog's skin with saline solution. Remember, it must be saline; iodine, alcohol, and similar medications are too irritating for dogs and may worsen the skin disease instead of helping. If the wound is complicated, you can trim the surrounding hair to make it easier to treat the affected area. After cleaning the wound, use a clean towel or gauze to dry it, then apply medication to the dog. For medication selection, it is best to follow the doctor's advice. When applying medicine daily, carefully check for any newly infected spots. If new areas are found, clean and medicate them promptly. Along with topical treatment, you can also give the dog some vitamins orally to help recovery. Persist in applying the medicine for a period of time, and the Pomeranian will soon recover healthily.

We all know ultraviolet rays help kill germs, so you can often take your dog to bask in the sun, but the time should not be too long to avoid heatstroke and sunburn. It is best to place the Pomeranian's doghouse where sunlight can reach. Also, regularly bathe the dog. We should use special shampoo for Pomeranians rather than substitute human shower gel or shampoo. A particular point to note is not to mix dog bathing supplies with those of the owner, because animals easily harbor fungi and bacteria, which can affect the owner's health. The dog’s bathing tools should also be disinfected frequently.

The treatment cycle for skin diseases is relatively long, especially when the condition is severe. At such times, sick Pomeranians often have poor moods and need the owner to spend more patience and provide more caring attention.
