| Yorkies are kind of "front heavy" I was walking and saw a girl walking her yorkie(I don't have a furbaby of my own yet) and it looked like it was almost running on its front legs because its head was pulling him down. Now it looked really cute and made you go aww...but is that normal? |

| Hi welcome to YT. The Yorkie you saw sounds like me, I am a little top heavy LOL I don't think it's necessarily normal, but Georgie (my baby) walks differently than my neices Yorkie Oliver.

| Thank you for the welcome! I think the haircut played a part also, all of its hair was on its head lol. the hair on its body was cut short and the hair on its head was long. I guess it added more weight. |
