I should add, she is long and narrow by nature which I think does make a difference for her. My new baby is not quite as long, and I can tell already she is just going to look overall different but I can't feel her spine at all but then again she is a bit more stalky. |
Like you have Moka to compare your new baby to, I compare Sophie to my mom's older Yorkie who is 12+ lbs. Maybe I should stop comparing them since they're obviously just built reaaalllly differently.
