My Lola has a very similar face and ppl ask me ALL THE TIME if she is a mix. one time somebody told me she was a yorkie and french poodle mix  .
I payed the same amount of money for her than must yorkies cost, she is 4.05lbs and almost 3 yrs old. One breeder told me that the "long nose" was the standard and that these new "doll face" yorkies with mushed noses are not breed to standard and that they are "mixed or breed" differently so they can have that short nose.
i sm not gonna lie, i like the short nose better than the longer one, but it gets annoying not knowing what to say to ppl when they ask me what kind of mix lola is or even worse : WHAT KIND OF DOG SHE IS!   |
That's too funny...I wouldn't worry to much about what ppl say. They don't know so they ask. I had a serious mini schnauzer mama ask me if Pooky was a schnauzer hahahaha I wouldn't believe the breeder story about mixing for a short nose. That's just silly. Heck, I think a Yorky looks like a chihuahua with long hair, hehe It's small and adorable and there's two types of chihuahuas heads...apple head or deer head. The apple is the shorter nosed fella. So the doll faced yorkie isn't a recognized breed but he is recognized as being a full bred Yorkie, that's all that matters.
