 | |  | | Pidgeon is right- Pups can stay similar to how they were or change dramatically coat wise as they age!
If Teddy stays similar to the coloration he is now or gets darker (ie: darker red/orange and more brown guard hairs), he will be a chocolate sable. If he gets lighter (more towards cream colored, less brown guard hairs), he will be a beaver (not the animal, thankfully! Just the color  )!
My best guess is he will mature in to a chocolate sable, but either way he is totally adorable and will grow into a gorgeous adult  Take lots of pictures! It's fun to look back on puppy pictures and see how much they grow and change the course of that first puppy year 
Also: if you are interested, here is a neat website that has a bunch of information on dog coat genetics: Dog Coat Genetics The "B" series gene is what is responsible for making brown puppers. Depending on the breed, brown/brown shaded dogs are called either liver, chocolate, red, or just plain brown! In pomeranians I believe they are referred to as chocolate, since "red" is the term for the traditional reddish hued pomeranian with a black nose and brown eyes.Edited by author Fri Jan 13, '12 3:21pm PST

That's what Kip and Oogie are, granted Oogie has darker brown chocoloate sabling, darker amber eyes, and a chocolate face mask. Kip has a dark reddish-brown sabling, light green/amber eyes, no face mask, and more white markings. This is a photo of their mom, Izzy, who is a chocolate sable pomeranian:
It will be fun for you to watch how his fur changes from puppy to adult- some pups end up getting more dark guard hair while other pups seem to get lighter!
