Pomeranians are a toy breed, therefore their bite isn't usually thought of as being particularly powerful. Their small stature and delicate jaws give them a weak bite compared to other robust dog breeds.
Pomeranians are small enough that there hasn't been nearly as much study done on their biting power as there has been on bigger breeds, but estimates put it anywhere from 100 to 200 pounds per square inch (PSI). This is substantially less than the biting force of other powerful breeds, like as the German Shepherd, which may reach upwards of 400 to 700 PSI.
Even though Pomeranians have less of a bite than other dog breeds, it's still vital to remember that any dog bite or nip may be painful. Therefore, it is crucial to teach and socialize them so that they learn to control their bite and behave appropriately around humans and other animals.
It's vital to keep in mind that bite power isn't the only element affecting a dog's temperament and behavior. Rarely seen in the wild, violent behavior in Pomeranians is at odds with the breed's reputation for friendliness and devotion. A well-behaved and content Pomeranian is the product of careful breeding, rigorous training, and extensive socialization.
