Do yorkies normally have long tails? When I adopted mine she looked like she didn't have a tail but I soon saw it. Her's is 2in long I don't know if she was born like that or not. I hope so.:confused:
Yes, yorkies are born with long tails and they are docked as newborns just as many other breeds are.

:eek: I wasn't aware of that. Hopefully there wasn't pain, I just read it's done for show's, why else do they do that for?
