She has the bowed front legs of the Shih Tzu. Ears are huge and flopped.
I don't know if this is what you have in mind and a yorkie/shih tzu mix can look like either breed and everything in between including what this one looks like.
Always remember puppies are cute, but in a mixed breed they can grow up to look like almost anything.
It is not within the Shih Tzu breed standard to have bowed front legs , I have owned one my whole life and the legs are straight . Visible teeth are also not within the Tzu standard . My Shih Tzu Henry is the sweetest dog in the UNIVERSE , if your pup has a Shih Tzu temperament you will be very lucky . That pup is darling , I find pure bred dog snobs a BORE ( JMO ). Sarah
