I do board a boy that was sold to his owners as a yorkie (pet store)....the first time I saw him I knew he wasn't a pure bred yorkie, but a silkie or silkie yorkie mix.
Now there are breeders that breed for the more leggie yorkie, which of course makes them taller. And their are those that are longer muzzled, since only during the last few years breeding has taken a turn for the shorter smooshy muzzle.
