The standard states:

General Appearance: The body is neat, compact and well proportioned.

Body: Well proportioned and very compact. The back is rather short, the back line level, with height at the shoulder the same as at the rump.

If you want to read an in depth study of the standard you should get The New Complete Yorkshire Terrier, Joan Gordon.
