The puppy uglies is a transitional period that pomeranian puppies go through when the puppy coat falls out to make way for the adult coat. This generally begins between 3-7 months of age. During this time, the puppy will be in his/hers ugly ducking stage. Gone will be your cute fluff ball. In his/hers place will be a thin coated and somewhat bulgy eyed little bundle of awkward joy. A Pom’s fur will change from a one-layer coat of short soft hairs to a two-layer double coat with a short dense undercoat and a top coat of longer guard hairs. This is a natural occurrence and rest assured that your puppy will grow into a beautiful swan in the upcoming months.
