pointy nose?? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

kjcmsw · 01-19-2011, 10:46 AM

I think the pointy nose is what people mean when they refer to the "fox face" and the shorter snout means the "teddy bear face" - whatever both are cute, and though I do think my shorter muzzled Yorkie (Carly) does have the perpetual puppy look I actually prefer the longer muzzle (fox face) of my other Yorkie, Gracie. I've yet to figured out what the "babydoll face" is suppose to look about that I often see advertised. Seems to me the breeder I got Gracie from had mentioned a "baby doll face", but I would think that would be more of the short muzzle (which Gracie has the long or regular muzzle).
So if short is teddy bear and long is fox, what exactly is the babydoll face? Somewhere in between??? Yeah, yeah, I know not "correct" descriptions but those terms are used and I'd like to know what the look is that goes with each one.

MY Zada and Azrael both have the teddy bear face, and Razael has the "normal" show quality look to her face. I don't know why they are different, but I suppose with each and every breed, they also have some differences.

I think I have one of each type of face. lol Nikki has the long pointy face and big ears, Pixie has the "baby doll face" Roxie has what I call the typical yorkie face and Cali has a more teddy bear face. I love them all.

Thanks! It's hard to believe Nikki is 16+ years.

Gatsby has a pointed face I actually prefer it to the teddy bear look.

I'd never guessed 16 + years! wow.

Tabbysmother · 01-19-2011, 02:52 PM

Nikki is 16?? Wow! Tab has a face like that. (Nikki is the one to the far left, right?) She's on the smaller side (4.8 lbs) and kinda, to me, has a bit longer body and legs than I think is "normal." Although a. she might beef up some more, she's only 7 months, and the fur hides a lot.

Lol, Jackson has a long nose, too. Everyone tells me he is a Silky, but who knows. He definitely looks like a Silky to me.

Yes he's the one on the left. He also has long legs and body. He weighs 5.2 but due to his age he is on the skinny side.
Nikki looks like a silky but has the really silky long coat of a yorkie.

Josie has the long nose or the fox look and she tries to be sly like a fox and Jack has the teddy bear nose and he is as cuddley as a teddy bear.

I'm not sure what type of nose Rio and Bullet have. I kind of think their hairstyles sort of "mask" whatever type of nose they have. Anyway, I don't care what kind of nose they have, like you all say, our furbabies are perfect in our eyes!

Not too long, and not too short, it just right! Seriously, Rio and Bullet are very beautiful!
