I don't know what the standard is for body length but, I have read alot of puppies for sale that mention a square, cobby body. I think the breeders like the looks of a square body which means the height of the puppy from floor to shoulders would be the same as the length of the puppy from base of neck to base of tail.
One of my yorkies is a square 8 1/2 by 8 1/2 but the other one measures 11" long by 9 1/2" height.
