What Pomeranians need most from their food

The Pomeranian’s signature coat and tiny frame create specific nutritional needs:

Coat Volume & Quality

That famous double coat is built from dietary protein and omega-3 fatty acids. Fish oil and high-quality protein support coat density and shine.

Dental Health

Toy breeds are highly prone to dental disease. A clean, low-starch diet reduces plaque-promoting sugars.

Nutrient Density

Tiny stomachs need maximum nutrition per bite. Freeze-dried raw delivers complete nutrition in small portions.

Tracheal & Heart Health

A breed prone to collapsing trachea and heart issues benefits from lean body weight maintenance through nutrient-dense food.

Why freeze-dried raw is right for PomeraniansPomeranians

The Pomeranian’s most striking feature — that voluminous double coat — is built directly from nutrition. Coat density, shine, and health depend on adequate high-quality protein and omega-3 fatty acids. Loyal Saints provides both: whole-food animal protein and fish oil delivering direct EPA and DHA.

As a toy breed, Pomeranians also need nutrient-dense food (tiny stomachs, complete nutrition in small portions) and benefit from a clean, low-starch diet that supports dental health and lean weight maintenance — important for a breed prone to tracheal and cardiac issues.

The standard is King.

Loyal Saints was built because of one dog. King’s digestive sensitivities pushed Kristina Voltin to question the ingredients, processing and nutrition behind every bowl. She formulated a whole-food, freeze-dried raw diet from human-grade quality ingredients — food she felt confident feeding King every day. Every formula is held to that standard: would I feed this to King?

For Pomeranians owners navigating the same questions Kristina faced — about ingredients, about what’s really in the bag, about whether the food is actually good — Loyal Saints is the answer she built for them.

Frequently Asked Questions

What food makes a Pomeranian’s coat fuller?

Coat density and shine are driven by dietary protein and omega-3 fatty acids. Turkey + Salmon is the top pick — the fish oil delivers direct EPA and DHA that support coat health from the inside. Most owners see coat improvement within 4–8 weeks of switching to a whole-food, omega-rich diet.

How much should I feed my Pomeranian?

Pomeranians typically weigh 3–7 lbs and need up to about ¾ cup of freeze-dried raw a day as a complete meal (Beef or Turkey + Salmon; ¾ cup of Chicken — the bag chart starts at 6 lb, so ask your vet to confirm the amount for a smaller dog), split into two meals. Because freeze-dried raw is nutrient-dense, the portion is small. Monitor body condition and adjust.

Is freeze-dried raw good for toy breeds like Poms?

Yes — arguably ideal. The nutrient density means a small dog gets complete nutrition without eating a large volume. The clean, low-starch recipe pairs well with the daily tooth-brushing small breeds need, and the omega-3 content supports the coat. Feed two smaller meals to support stable blood sugar.

Will switching foods cause shedding?

A diet change can briefly coincide with normal coat turnover, but a higher-quality, omega-rich diet supports a healthier coat over time — typically meaning less excessive shedding and a denser, shinier coat once the transition settles over 4–8 weeks.
