Pomsky Grooming Notes

Pomskies inherit the double coat from both parents, creating a gloriously fluffy but heavy-shedding dog. They shed year-round with two major coat blows per year (spring and fall) where clumps of undercoat release. Professional de-shedding treatments are essential, not optional. NEVER shave a Pomsky — like both parent breeds, their double coat provides insulation and may not regrow properly. Regular brushing 3-4 times per week with an undercoat rake and slicker brush manages shedding between grooms. Their compact size makes them manageable to groom, but the coat density means sessions take longer than their size would suggest.
