| Prissy has long legs !!!! Well they look long to me and she looks scrawny even though she eats very well. Well her hair isn't very long yet and she is 24 weeks old, well 6 months the 24th. Does any of yours have long legs or how long should they be? Dh says I worry too much and he says that she is healthy and I do believe she is healthy but it does seem that I am always looking for something wrong. I love her dearly and she means the world to me...btw, she is curled up next to me now and you should see the smile on my face. Yes being a little shrimpy right now.

| Beauty Is.....Hi, I am sure you have read the AKC standard. Yorkies are supposed to look almost square. The last show I attened several of the Yorkies had longer legs, they appereared to glide around the ring. Other Yorkies had stocky little bodies. Some judges said that the long legs were a fault, others judges said the longer legs were graceful, lovely and just right.

| Max had incredibly long legs. Everyone who meets him says he's so tall. He's also very long so he does somewhat have the square frame. Here are 4 photos of him. The first one was him at 11 weeks. He is a physically healthy boy (and a really fast runner!).

| Well that is good to know, I see Max's were long at 11 weeks and too cute, well Prissy's has looked long the past couple of weeks..she weigh's 4 lb 5 ounces. I see that Yorkies can come in all different sizes. I do hope her scraggly look improves, she looks underfed. LOL The vet who did her spaying last week said that she was very healthy and in great shape. So I guess I need to try to quit worrying so much.

| Laddy has longer legs when his hair is short they look extremely long but we have let his coat grow and now he has the square shape. He stayed skinny until we got Kyra and he keeps getting into her puppy food. Now he is finally at the stage where we cant feel his ribs lol. We have always fed Royal Canine but I am not sure it works the best for him after seeing this change in him.
