Long Legs - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I am just wondering, does anyone have a yorkie w/long legs? Recently I noticed that Blaze looks tall and as if his legs are long. He is 6.5 months old and he is a bit taller then Autumn who is 1.5 yrs old. His legs are longer then Autumns (hers are on the shorter side)
Does anyone else notice this w/their furbutt?

Renny and Ceeby both have long legs but they are balanced and the coat is long to cover it.

He still looks on the skinny side (even though he is 5.2 as of last thursday when he was neutered) so maybe when he finally fills out he wont look as tall?

Conner is a slim 10-pounder with long legs. All the girl dogs chase him in the park.

why dont' you post a picture.. maybe it is just your imagination

Roxie is 6 months old and had really long legs, she weighs 3 lbs 7 ounces and is taller than Pixie who is 2 and pretty long legged and weighs about 4 lbs and Cali who is almost 3 and weighs 5 1/2 lbs. Not sure what she will end up like. I am hoping that she is almost done getting taller and will just put on some weight. Also when her coat grows it won't look so strange. Pixie is long legged and in full coat it looks pretty.

Compared to karleighs whos are 4 in long

It does make a difference though, So preciuos long or short

Bella has long legs and let me tell you they are sexy little legs lol

autumn star · 04-01-2008, 03:48 AM

I was finally able to get a couple of pictures of his legs. Everytime I tried he would sit or run away!

So do you think he looks long?

Erin · 04-01-2008, 03:58 AM

That's what Loki looked like at that age. He has long legs too. He can out walk his sister like 4 to 1!

Chipper has long legs, too, for his body. Makes him look so skinny. Can't have long hair on him because he is a cotton coat. Also worry about him when he decides to jump off of things despite the ramps I have. Read on time on YT that long legs have more of a tendency to suffer injury. Don't know if that it true, though.
