My little pomeranian is a snob!
I love my little sweetie pie with all my heart. I try to give her the best, but she's very picky. Two things have happened recently that made me realize just how picky she is.

First, I usually have Town House crackers to eat. I always give her a little piece. She loves them. Last night I was at my mother-in-law's and I gave her a piece of a generic Ritz-type cracker. She took it, then dropped it and looked at me. I had to order her to eat it. She did. Later on I tried to give her another piece. She sniffed it, licked my hand as if to say "thanks anyway, it's not good enough" and walked away!

The other incident has me REALLY worried. She enjoys new and different scents. I usually open up the perfume sample pages in magazines and put them on the floor for her. I found one of Chanel #5. She loved it! She rubbed her face in it, rolled in it, scratched it, rolled in it some more. She continued to do it for some time. The rest of the night people picked her up and commented on how nice she smelled. Of course she smelled nice- she was wearing Chanel #5!
The next night I found another perfume sample from Avon. I opened it and put it down for her. She sniffed it, took a step back, sat down and gave me this LOOK. It was a look of disgust. It was a look that said "Are you kidding me? Avon?".

I'm concerned that I don't make enough money to keep my dog happy. She has expensive taste!

1. I was under the impression that ALL pomeranians are snobs.
All the ones I've ever met are.

They are quite furry though...so they're forgiven.

2. Frickin' LOL
My dog, Lyric, a black lab/german shepherd mix...is spoiled, but no snob. I only wish that, when I looked in the mirror, I could see the person Lyric sees!

4. my neighbor's friend owns that site!
That's so funny--I loved the collar picture so I clicked the link. I was so surprised to see the site because I realize now this is the site of my neighbor's friend (I'm in NJ). She has two bulldogs and my neighbor has cases of the dogfood shipped all the way from Vegas! You talk about snooty!!

Well, one of my cats even wears a collar with a tag that says, "Picky Eater." My husband is in the gourmet food business and occasionally does some experimenting in our home kitchen. Our cat Bitsey loves it. Our other cat, Greenlee, just likes to watch. Whenever he's cooking, Bitsey sits on a tall chair and awaits her goodies. He cuts up little pieces of roasted lamb, etc., and gives them to her on a plate and she loves it.

One night he was cooking and I wasn't aware that he was doing anything she'd like so I put out their early dinner of Fancy Feast and half and half with some Friskies ocean fish and some Dental Diet. Ms. Bitsey Boo sailed right by and went to her "perch." Guess she was saying, "I'm having lamb tonight."

Loved your Pomeranian story. Ah, the finer things in life!


Cher

5. Cool!
They have some great stuff on that site, in fact I was thinking of ordering a collar for Gracie.

Funny about your kitty! What a great life they lead, what with the home cooking and all!!
