for length/topline , you measure from the base of the neck just at the shoulder to the base of the tail.
for heigth , you measure paw to top of shoulder ...

Oh I love this tread. I'm at work and can't wait to get home to measure Ladybug. Everyone in my neighborhood ALWAYS!!!! says how big she is for a yorkie and they ask if she is a silky because they've never seen such a big yorkie . I'm guessing Ladybug to be around 11.5 inches tall (not including her head) I think someone referred to their baby as a giraffe if they included the head?? I am so glad to have stumbled across YT. I see that yorkies come in all sizes and heights. I'll be back soon to post Ladybug's numbers.

Okay I'm home now and I immediately measured Ladybug:

Just turned 9 months on April 6th
7lbs
11 inches from paw to shoulders
13 inches from neck to tail.

I'm always brushing his facial hair away from his eyes and he will bush it right back up first chance. He must enjoy looking like a fuzzball with legs.

OMG!! That baby is cute!! I thought the Avatar was just a 'out-of-the-pool-humid-hair-day'... but that's really him! He's is adorable!
