Party time! Everyone is getting ready for a hot summer night party, starting with adorable little guy.

The dog belongs to the Pomeranian breed. The breed has been made popular by a number of royal owners since the 18th century. Queen Victoria owned a particularly small Pomeranian and consequently the smaller variety became universally popular. During Queen Victoria’s lifetime alone, the size of the breed decreased by 50%.

Often knows as a Pom Pom or just Pom, the Pomeranian is a breed of dog of the Spitz type, named for the Pomerania region inEastern Europe (today part of northern Poland and eastern Germany). Classed as a toy dog breed because of its small size, the Pomeranian is descended from the larger Spitz type dogs, specifically the German Spitz. It has been determined by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale to be part of the German Spitz breed; and in many countries, they are known as the Zwergspitz.
