Orange is the most popular of the Pomeranian colors. This hue can range from light to dark. If it’s too deep then it’s considered red (although, this shade is actually more rust than red). If an orange Pomeranian has black strips it’s considered orange brindle. The orange base color with black tips is an orange sable.

True black Poms are rare. They will be pure black and will have no secondary color or markings on their coats. Black skin pigmentation means the nose, lips, paw pads, and eye rims will all be black. If any other color exists they’re considered to be a parti.
