After doing extensive reading, and seeing pictures online~ I am now convinced that my pup and that pup! are not Yorkies, but in fact Silky's!!!
am I right?
Someone confirm here because this matches my pup to a T.
The Silky has a longer muzzle than the Yorkie and the Silky's head is more wedge shaped than the Yorkie, which has a more "dome shaped" head. The Silky's body is longer than the Yorkie's body. The Yorkie's body shape is more "square", in that the Yorkie's body is no longer than it is tall at shoulder giving a square appearance. The Silky's body is somewhat longer than it is tall at the shoulder. A healthy silky is well muscled and very sturdy for a dog of this size. |
