Short Legs on a Yorkie Puppy- Defect or Normal?? I am looking at getting a Yorkie puppy who appears to be healthy and has a good temperament, but his legs are really short and his body is very compact and squared off. Are the short legs a cause for concern or a possible defect? |
Short legs and a compact body are desireable I think. Is the rest of his body balanced in size? Sherry:) |
yea.. short legs and a square body is very desirable. supposedly its best if the body is as long as the legs are tall (square body) nothing to worry about :) |
Short Legs on a Yorkie Yes, his body is in proportion, very compact and he is the cutest! |
my puppy has short lil legs and square body. very compact and my vet said he's one of the best looking and healthiest yorkie puppies he's seen in years. so i would not be worried :) congrats on your pup!! |
Hi Sumos Mommy, Thanks :), the Breeder said that he should be a good looking dog so now I have an independent view from you also! Do you have pictures of your Yorkie in the gallery? :aimeeyork:animal-pa |

Duchess has long legs. She has the square body but she is usually taller than other yorkies we have encountered. She weights about 8lbs. |
Are you buying a potential show dog or a pet? |
