The Pomeranian is a member of the family of dogs known unofficially as the "Spitz Group." The Pomeranian is a descendent of sled dogs of Iceland and Lapland. In 1888, Queen Victoria fell in love with a Pomeranian in Florence, Italy, and brought the specimen back to England, influencing its popularity dramatically. In fact, a Pomeranian lay beside the Queen at her death. This breed can also be called: Deutscher Zwergspitz, Toy German Spitz and Zwers. Famous Pomeranians include one that Michaelangelo took with him while he painted the Sistine Chapel and Thomas Edison had one that spilt ink on his important papers which contained over 20 years of research. The Pomeranian is part of the AKC Toy Group.
