Here is a good article that explains the Yorkshire Terrier standard and there are a few examples showing the correct topline, tail set and tail carriage, etc. As it explains in the article, it is easy to stack a dog to make the topline look straight but it is hard to hide a bad topline when a dog is moving or free stacking.
