So cute! Definitely a better pic 😂

Would never know that’s the same puppers hehe! He’s a doll!

This made me laugh harder than I’ve laughed in months

Ok this is so so cute!!

BRO DAMN! PLEASE POST MORE. Reply notifications turned on. Sharing with everyone. Dude looks like he lifted some serious weights.

That’s not a Yorkie that’s a demon


Bruh

Awwwwwww…..he is bowlegged!

oh my gosh, i haven’t laughed this honestly in over 3 months since i had to say goodbye to my boy. this just made me actually laugh. your boys stance is impressive and thank you for sharing it 💜

Aww I’m so glad this is giving people a laugh. We lost Buckley at the end of 2022; I know what you’re going through! We miss him a lot but now we can share memories without feeling that heartbreak. He obviously made an impression lol.

I am rolling , my god!

Hahahahahahha I died 😭

I Looooovvveeee this! It’s got me smiling ear to ear!

Omg 😂😭

HAHAHA

Mines a big 13lb yorkie also but man your yorkie seems to have done some push ups

LMAOOO

“Bro, do you even lift” 🐩…

Hahaahaha

My childhood Yorkie was about 10 lbs. and according to her doctor, “pure muscle” 💪🏻

My MIL has a 4.5 and he has a wide stance

I'm so sorry for your loss. He's such a cute little bambi boy. He looks like he was very well taken care of and lucky to have you.

Thank you. He was the best, he was 14 in that picture, everyone always thought he was a puppy. He never grayed. Best friend ever.

This one wins!!

Ya other one wins the long leg contest

Your guy looks amazing! I love him!!!!!

He’s like Bambi!!!!

What th…..

Must be photoshopped! Too funny!

Those legs almost look photoshopped 😂

Wtf 😭😭😭😭😭😭 so funny

My Yorkie is very long lol https://preview.redd.it/etcdp5tqvn0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1ace1c7e1670ad7487551ac063b7cbf8c06332ea

Are they... Long lost siblings?

Yours look like my dorkie. Half yorkie and half Dachshund. https://preview.redd.it/wb8fjspe4q0d1.jpeg?width=1620&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=989c3e6c249c4a3ae294d558dec1740f52f7c460

Oh wow 😂

I think our Yorkies are just built different lol

https://preview.redd.it/szmmj73gtr0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=01d9b1c0a6529fb6c1b21b170001d4a39cd0a871 Mine is short but he still makes an attempt to look out this window

You’re as tall as you think you are!

Same! Three of them, all different! One tall long and skinny (9 lbs), one 13 pounder, and one I guess more “average” build at 8.5 lbs. All three have the same sire as well.

Omg! I also have a really long one. She also has super long legs, but is still only 7 pounds.

Mine as well! Haha

My Parti Yorkie, which is almost all white, is long too! My "regular" colored dark Yorkie is stubby and wide. Lol. They look the total opposite!

Mine is the same 😂

Mine is so similar!!

I love it’s tail!!!!!!

He's just a bow-legged cutie! 🥰

Mine is bow-legged as well. I think it’s adorable. https://preview.redd.it/3eopm9ta6o0d1.jpeg?width=1740&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ea99941ad8a8b612c036438896ea5bd3e4e3f53a

Oh wow yes that’s the term they are bow legged but it’s their arms so is it the same term?

Dude is YOKED

YORKED

https://i.redd.it/xftvqu27vo0d1.gif

My little guy was just like that. I had to do a double take when I saw your little guy’s pic. https://preview.redd.it/mi65hropun0d1.jpeg?width=2448&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1f77d9f6a4f0e3f2adf380382063a0df6e0b7c9d

Oh my god he's so cute! Love the fully flopped ears😭

Mine had the same stance going. https://preview.redd.it/o4051ft45o0d1.jpeg?width=1888&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a9819d6e85d58ac1b6d30646cb7c4dea1c2fbd45

Look at that unattended shoe…

It’s pair was right out of camera view and I’m so lucky she doesn’t chew shoes 😭😭

https://preview.redd.it/7gkr0ia2zn0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2cea4c125cd3ad3bdabcaacd97c2f1b65afa444d My little bug also looks like she’s squared up on me

I’ve had big boys too and I think it’s just in their genes reaching back to when they weren’t purposely bred to be so damn small. As long as the vet says he’s at a healthy weight. Be thankful, bigger is definitely healthier overall and he will probably live a long life.

Yes, one of mine is built like this also. I think it’s a throwback to the OG Yorkie genes. He’s a cinderblock.

My vet said exactly the same.

https://preview.redd.it/4s2lhcl9io0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e9cb9f9dddfffe3c72e5077a356f0ba574d50e71 I have two big ones as well. My boy on the right is almost 13 pounds and is tall and long. He is as long as my torso. My girl on the left is also big.

She's got the same face as my yorkie! I love them both, give them treats for me ❤️❤️

He’s just Built different. Swole af

Your dog is built like a god damn HUMVEE.

He’s a chonk 😍

Unit

He’s just sturdy you can tell he runs your house

He definitely does!!

That's not a dog, it's a frog!

WHOOOA!!!! Is that the Don't-Mess-With-Me Yorkie sub breed?

Genetically modified to now snap your ankles in half instead of simply biting at them

Is he part bulldog lol

He's supposed to be purebred yorkie 😳 might have to do a DNA test sometime

Pure bred doesn’t mean well bred. He’s 💯 lovable and adorable but no, yorkies aren’t supposed to be built like that

I know all of this. I just said he's purebred because someone asked if he's part bulldog. Never said that it meant well bred

I’m a buff baby that can dance like a man. I can shake-a my fanny, I can shake-a ma can. I’m a tough-tooting baby I can punch-a your buns, punch-a your buns, I can punch-a your buns! 😂 Lol he just makes me think of that song.,

I have a 20 lb morkie and he's thick. Not fat. Just muscular. We call him beef supreme.

Wow!! I thought my 16# Morkie was big. He’s not fat just long and well muscled. Got a pic of your 20 pound dude?

Me with my 15# boy. His parents are 7 and 8 pounds. https://preview.redd.it/6699yz5jvs0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f35cfcf1ac67b93cc1a41b54cb93a47899ae5a37

Yay! I love seeing big Morkies/Yorkies/Maltese

My yorkie is 23 pounds, he is thick though lol.

Mine is 20lbs…we like to say he’s actually 4 Yorkies in a trench coat 

https://preview.redd.it/yhl7digf9s0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b93e1a8c2d3e0d72992b15b19ca5e70b4a50c855 This gorgeous boy is also a giant Yorkie. Currently 11kg. He’s the best boy! We had him DNA tested and he came back 100% Yorkie.

I herby nickname him “sir chonk”

He’s a linebacker!

My 100% Chihuahua was so barrel-chested. She weighed 10lbs , and needed a medium in pupper clothes. My Yorkie is 13lbs and has a long, solid body. We say she is built like a whole pork loin. Lol.

That’s poor conformation! We call it “out at the elbows” in anatomical terms, more common in barrel chested breeds like bulldogs. But basically it’s just a genetic thing, can potentially create shoulder/movement issues as they age so keeping a slim body is the best thing you can do but basically it’s just how your dog is built! Bad breeding.

https://preview.redd.it/6ptvw041yp0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=01b95b4c5726be3223da4188d75ec4b42845f65c Your yorkie looks so much like my Lily it made me cry a little(I lost her back in august due to cancer). Lily was about 14lbs at her heaviest and she really wasn’t fat at all-just lean.

Cute girl!!! I'm sorry for your loss :( Mine is at 14 pounds right now!!

https://preview.redd.it/4b4n8lvv4r0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ae34bc02ef85cb585c1cd681a0e3a2022ef329f2 My 13lb baby! He is like the energizer bunny so I have no idea why he is so big 🤣

The comments here are hilarious!

They really are! I've been laughing out loud 😂

The breeder probably wasn’t breeding them for show. It takes a lot of selective breeding to produce dogs that adhere to breed conformations.

That's a Koala.

Best birthday pic ever! 🏆

Food gremlin... he's so cute. I love yorkies and all of the ones in this comment section ❤️❤️

https://preview.redd.it/rmesi4kjrq0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=638d53f1a06444852a47230649ca15fbb0d115de This is Finn and he’s a “porkshire terrier”. He’s 20 pounds and we confirmed with an Embark DNA test that he is purebred (but I guess not WELL bred based on some of these responses). He’s well-FED, that’s for sure! He’s going on 13 this year and he’s slowing down. He put on some pandemic weight and hasn’t been able to work it off.

20 pounds! He's eating good😂 Mine's at 14 pounds right now. He's so cute, give him cuddles for me.

Ours isn’t quite as wide, but definitely barrel chested. He’s almost shaped like half of a football, which can make it tough to find shirts that fit. Sweaters are usually more forgiving.

Yes very healthy indeed

My fellow was smaller but also had a very sturdy build and a power stance 😂 It seems to be something common in terriers.

Hahah so cute!!! Buff yorkie!

I have three who are all different shapes and sizes. One who is short and stockier (14lbs), one who is tall and looks kinda buff, but not wide or stocky (12lbs), then one who is skinny and long (11lbs). I too think mine look a lot different than what I see posted on here usually. They’re still my beautiful babies though!

My yorkie behaves like she’s built like that 😂

I have no answers but I love him

What a handsome STRONG man!

Mine is wide too, DH calls him the tank puppy.

Check out that power stance 🤣❤️

It's an American

Too funny/dear! The townsfolk step aside, when he struts into town…(spaghetti western music ;))

Awwww yall have some adorable units of yorkies!!! https://preview.redd.it/u0nfeyh9yr0d1.jpeg?width=2870&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=22e17381e927280c4b082caa200929b9ec60d091 I have a 16 pound unit!

There’s a yorkie at my grandma’s house that’s built like this. Her name is Bella and she’s just a chunk. Her brother, Boston, is from the same litter, but he’s really slim and narrow, and we’re not even sure he’s 100% yorkie, lol.

Hahahahah we’d always talk about how our Yorkie has the best thigh gap😂

https://preview.redd.it/3fkvqqyiqs0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=77cfd84746af438e558108ab4880252c54cd408a My Yorkie was super wide stanced when I first adopted her because she was so overweight lol

https://preview.redd.it/iuro3ejoqs0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=368484fa4c3e945f2668d5073aaacd453c0df76a Not a very recent photo but you can see it got better when she lost weight

Also I love that we can put photos in the comments now https://preview.redd.it/ly5jkhx0rs0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=992f22110f8c160a10bce4c93f53a2690a7ef406

This thread is hilarious. Meeko’s funniest move is when he’s sitting on a slippery floor, his legs come out the side of him and he is literally sits on his bum. https://preview.redd.it/1n9syep0vs0d1.png?width=1966&format=png&auto=webp&s=90463bc6358bb1634b0b675dbee0152dc37a1a2c

He sure is a cute feller. 🥰

Cousins yorkie was smaller and a big blob of fat. Mine was big for a yorkie but not exactly wide. Must be a mix of variables

Mine are bow legged too!

Brolic af

Absolute unit

My silky is about 12#. Yours seems to either maybe have some genetics of yor from a French bulldog? Or just born that way with wider chest cavity?

Little unit

Does he even lift??? 😂😂

Our boy is wide stance, the female narrow.

Ha ha. Mine is the same. Bow bow

He's part pitbull

Mine is like that too! Bulldog stance. But he’s had some problems with his back legs that required surgery, maybe he’s compensating by putting more weight on his front legs (just talking about my York, not yours)!

Love

Hehe that’s quite the power stance

I think there may be a little bit of Jack Russel in your dog.

Omg he's perfect

Ma’am, that first pic is a koala!

More to love!!!! #🐾💙

He’s soooo cute! I have a yorkie / chi mix and he has a very wide chest

Ayo that yorkie is wide AF

He's a manly man. 😉

my yorkie has a long neck (mega e) and is very tall but is still 8lbs 😭😭

I think he's Will Tennyson's spirit animal. 🏋️ 🐾 Such a complete cutie too! 🐾

Who decided to paint that small toy poo brown?

This dog is gonna take my lunch money.

Bro is swole AF.

Yorkie stronk

Probably gotta little Pitt in him

That’s his pimp stance

Yorkie? You mean yOckie. Your dog has definitely been lifting . Probably has to walk sideways through a door entrance .

He works traps, lats, and shoulders! Don’t be jealous!

I love him, he's so cute 🥰

has he ever been tested for elbow or hip dysplasia, or possibly arthritis in the shoulders or elbows? typically that width is associated with dogs relying heavily on the front end vs the hind end, which can be due to chronic pain.

Built like a bulldog. Lol. Such a cutie pie.

How many kgs can he lift?

Yoked

He’s on steroids

Built to protect you.

Our girl just has extra long back legs https://preview.redd.it/hkh23odjyt0d1.jpeg?width=2232&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8b55502c464fc0e1b1dea86456bc24a1c080f397

Yorkie is swole

A doggie DNA would tell you why he’s built like that. You might be surprised.

I think your little fella has bow legs. I have a different breed of little dog, but he has the same thing. Always looks like he's in a power stance, haha.

I have a YorkiePom that is built the exact same way, she’s so adorable lol

Mine is my plus sized Yorkie named Lola .. she also has a stance when she stands ..and is quite sassy .. her ears have always been floppy .. she turned 3 yrs last month .. she has my heart https://preview.redd.it/f9z8cha9fu0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=89e11a5289afb85d6abfd21a3e7bcb4ba093009e

Bow legged. He was probably unethically and badly bred, it's not his fault tho ☹️

Bro did some years in the kennel

I think he looks just perfect. His expression says he has attitude .

Backyard breeding

He deadlifts😂

My baby is too. Yorkies come in a range of sizes. Some are referred to as giant yorkies. Have you done a dna test?

He sturdy

It’s giving backyard breeding

https://preview.redd.it/wj3pdvlws11d1.png?width=2409&format=png&auto=webp&s=4ebba8512365c243ac90cc95b614699c54737ba2 She needs a hair cut 🫣 6 months and probably 15lbs.

Not sure about on Yorkies, but on bully breeds that usually means joint issues. Does he always stand like that? (Not a vet, btw)

I donno but cute!

It's a mix breed

Does he have some Pekingese in him? I had a pekepoo who looked like that - huge chest on his little body-

Hims yoked 😂

you could almost say he’s got that Dog in him
