(Cairn Terrier and Pomeranian mix) The Cairanian is a little fellow and will be lots of fun to have around. They are double coated with a thick undercoat and long outercoat. They come in many colors. The pointed ears are large for the body size and they have short legs. These attributes make them an adorable little canine.

Character


You will want to socialize them very early as they can have issues with small children and other animals. Since they are a bit stubborn potty training can be difficult for this hybrid. Be very consistent and reward a job well done. They are fun playful little guys.

Brushing a few times per week with a firm bristle brush and metal comb is recommended. A professional groom a couple of times per year might be a good idea.

Ideal Environment


A home with older children would be best for the Cairanian. They are an active dog and can become destructive if their needs aren\'t met. A game of fetch, going for walks and running and playing in general will be of great benefit to avoid any destructive behavior.

Dog Training!

If you're having problems training your dog or getting control, you should read our review of DogProblems.com. Adam will do whatever it takes to help you whip your dog into shape. I've used them to help with my Great Dane as well as help friends train their dogs. It's the first place I go to help answer users Questions. Many training issues are too extensive to answer in this forum, which is why I refer a lot of the load to his site. Update: I've been using and recommending DogProblems for three years now. I, as well as my users, value the techniques we've learned. I get weekly emails from users who have become better owners from the information they received.
