Wish anyone, in general, a Happy 97th Birthday with an adorable Pomeranian, Ava smiling wearing a pretty dress. The background is stripped with butterflies, a flower, a balloon, and magenta text. The Pomeranian descended from the Spitz family of dogs, the sled dogs of Iceland and Lapland. The breed takes its name from the historical region of Pomerania that makes up the southern coast of the Baltic sea now present day Germany and Poland, not because it originated there, but because this was most likely where it was bred down to size. In its larger form, the dog served as an able herder of sheep.
