Coincidentally, the Pomeranian my family had when I was growing up, Sugar, was also a throwback! We didnt know about throwback Poms at the time, but were surprised by how big she was for a Pomeranian. Sugar weighed about 16 to 18 pounds and was even bigger than Bear-Bear! Her daddy Pom was named Big Red, s o maybe he was a throwback Pom, too!
