Okay, I will start jotting some notes below. Feel free to revert any inadvertent changes I make. cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 23:14, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

• pomeranians can also learn quickly how to get what they want - ?? hmm...

Any time you are not training your dog, s/he is training you. :-) This was on a Pom site, it's better than describing them as 'stubborn' - dogs aren't stubborn, they just want what they want, not what you want, but we can look for a better way of getting the point across.

Changed to "Pomeranians respond well to firm, consistent obedience training, but otherwise will do what they please.[1]" Marj (talk) 05:04, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for the rephrase. Casliber (talk · contribs) 05:53, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

• Artic --> Arctic?? Currently leads to a disambiguation page

• Count Eberhard zu Sayne --> should this be Sayn?

Ended up having to check on geneology sites for dates, but certainly this seems to be the same chap. As Sayn is the common usage spelling, I've made the correction. All instances of Sayne on Google are related to this article. Miyagawa (talk) 10:05, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

Overall, nicely done - just tidy up these three little things and I think we're there. Casliber (talk · contribs) 00:05, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
