He looks so sad and yet so sweet! He’s an adorable Pomeranian (Pom) puppy who, most probably, misses his/her mommy.

This dog breed is a small size dog breed, the type of the Spitz who was named like this after the Pomerania region in Europe, part of Germany and Poland.

It is in fact a toy dog. According to Fédération Cynologique Internationale the Pomeranian is part of the German Spitz, in many countries it is know as the Zwergspitz (Dwarf Spitz), or Toy German Spitz. This dog breed goes back to 17th and 18th century, to Queen Victoria who was over her heels in love with a lovely Pomeranian. It is believed that because of Queen Victoria this breed reduced it’s size so much, becoming a toy dog breed.
