Funny Question? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Ok friends, bear with me while I try to ask this. Is your Yorkie a 'squishy' dog?

LOL...what I mean is, when you hold your little one, does he/she kind of feel like a warm rice bag or more like a little gymnast...? Widdles is wiry, not squishy at all. I pick him up and he has to adjust, and adjust, and squirm and wiggle until he's comfy...lol. Now, my two Chis are bean bags. I pick them up and they feel very 'squishy' and flop into my arms and instantly the head goes over and the eyes close. Now, I have to say, Wid is a bit more anxious because of his abused/neglected puppyhood. I was wondering if it's more a Yorkie thing, or more personalized toward his nervousness.

Just curious...I love them all, squishy or wiry..LOL!

Johnny is quite strong and not the bean-bag type puppy. His legs are quite muscular and his body is firm but he loves to snuggle, curling up, pushing into me as close as possible when I'm on the sofa.

Remi is like a bean-bag, I guess. He's like a little ragdoll. I pick him up and he's happy no matter what position he's in as long as he's being held. Roxy, on the other hand is a solid rock. She's only cuddly at bedtime or when she had jammies on(on a cold day). Any other time and she's one strong, squirmy little wiggler

LOL....I was talking about this the other day....I have one who's like Gumby, he's squishy, as long as he's being held he's fine any way you put him, very cuddly....
I have another one who's the complete opposite, he's like carrying around a piece of lumber, he won't bend....he's very stiff....
The third is in between, he'll let you cuddle up to a point, then he pushes off and wants down.....the differences is quite distinct in them all....
