Chihuahua or Pomeranian?

Hi everyone,

I've been doing some research into dog breeds to find the one that would best suit me and my family, and we're currently torn between a Chihuahua and a Pomeranian.

A bit about my family:

There are three of us (me and my parents, and I'm 13). We've never had a dog before. We would love to take our future dog everywhere with us. We aren't particularly sporty, but we could manage between an hour and an hour and a half of walking a day (split into a few shorter walks)...

> So, could you help us make the right choice?

Thanks in advance,

    Ideally, a puppy should be 8 weeks old. Personally, I'm a Spitz fan—they're bigger and not as frail as Chihuahuas ^^

    The most important thing is to choose a good breeder, and you should also read up on the traits of each breed... Don’t pick the most energetic pup in the litter, nor the least energetic; the aim is to have a well-balanced dog!!! Ideally, you’d want to get them between 10 and 12 weeks old... I’m in the trade, so I’m telling you this to make sure you get a proper family dog!!!
