My Daisy is 7 months old, 8lbs 4 oz has a pretty long snout and a long body. She is just CKC registered by a "backyard breeder". I mean, how can you really know without DNA testing?
My Sasha has DNA testing on both sides of her pedigree... She comes from a line of shorter faced and backed as well as lighter weighted and coated dogs. However, she is longer faced and backed as well as being just over 9 lbs as well as quite dark coated. Is she poorly bred? Not at all. Just outside of the standard. That's all. She simply has conformation faults. That's all.
