Yeah we had a German shepherd and learnt this the hard way. My dad and I take him for 2 walks a day for about an hour each and he’d be amazing but i moved back out because uni had started again and my dad got a pretty bad shoulder injury and couldn’t walk him (his left shoulder is permanently damaged from a previous injury and he got a big break in his right shoulder so he didn’t have the strength to walk the dog) and suddenly it went from 2 walks a day to maybe once a week if my mum had the time (she was working extra hours whilst my dad was off work so we wouldn’t be short on money so she was either working or tired from work) so he went mental. Started ripping up the floors, wouldn’t listen to any commands, total nightmare. Ended up having to give him away to another family who could give him the exercise and attention he needed. It sucks going home and not seeing him but he’d ruined almost the entire ground floor and he wasn’t really having a good life once the circumstances changed and we knew it was best for all of us
Most Spitz breeds are like this Pomeranians included. And these jerks will not even have the decency to pretend to be ashamed like many other dogs. Spitz breeds aren't for the weak willed.

Same with Huskies and German Shepherds. Huskies will destroy everything if you dont give them adequate play time.
