Most shampoos on the market have too many chemicals in them, and will do more harm on the long run, I found this article about Coat health and the importance of a good quality shampoo & what kind of chemicals to avoid: LINK (click for article)
As we have mentioned before, Our kennel have switched to using natural products this including the shampoo, GIGA Pet Organics is a sweet find. This Shampoo bar is made from all-natural ingredients meaning that it is has no harmful detergents and an addition to that it is hand-made.
This shampoo bar, is pocket friendly (because it does not cost a lot) is just one of the factors why the Mr. Chico dogs love it.

Of course, to make that coat looking great never underestimate regular brushing (even on shed!)
Regular brushing prevents matting (which most poms get when they aren't brushed resulting to a cut down) While Brushing use a quality pin brush like that of #1 All Systems. Brush your pomeranian at twice a day (or at least once) as to promote coat growth, contrary to belief that when a dog is shedding it should'nt be brushed often because it lessens the coat. Brushing actually stimulates coat growth that's why when your dog is shedding you need to brush it more.
Pomeranians shed at puppyhood (around 3 months above..depending on your dog)
The males shed yearly
The females shed when nearing season/after birth
