General Pomeranian Discussions

I bought a 6 week old Pom July 4th of this year. So she is apx 4 months old. Her coat is still very sparse. I’ve read online that it takes them a while to get their adult coats but it seems like it should be more full by this point, especially with the cold weather starting.
I’ve been putting her in puppy pj’s because she seemed cold but now Im concerned that maybe Im causing her coat not to grow.
Thank you for any information you can provide.

Don’t stress. Your puppy is going through the “Puppy Uglies”. This perfectly normal and putting clothes on your Pomeranian will not prevent the new coat from coming in. ”
Your Pomeranian will go through numerous changes in his or her coat throughout the years. Owners, new to this dog breed often don’t realise the fluffy, puppy coat generally starts to fall out when the Pomeranian is around four months of age. Puppy’s legs get tall and gangly, his coat becomes short and wispy. Frequently, different areas of the puppy’s body will grow faster than other parts and your pup may appear a little odd looking for a few weeks.
This period is actually referred to as the Pomeranian puppy “uglies” or puppy transition. The majority of puppies have to go through this awkward phase of puppy adolescence. Don’t be anxious as your ugly duckling will change into a swan at 9 to 10 months of age. ” From the Pomeranian Book
