The
standard
of
points
laid
down
by
the
Yorkshire
Terrier
Club
is
as
follows:--
GENERAL
APPEARANCE--That
of
a
long-coated
pet
dog,
the
coat
hanging
quite
straight
and
evenly
down
each
side,
a
parting
extending
from
the
nose
to
the
end
of
the
tail.
The
animal
should
be
very
compact
and
neat,
his
carriage
being
very
sprightly;
bearing
an
air
of
importance.
Although
the
frame
is
hidden
beneath
a
mantle
of
hair,
the
general
outline
should
be
such
as
to
suggest
the
existence
of
a
vigorous
and
well-proportioned
body.
HEAD--Should
be
rather
small
and
flat,
not
too
prominent
or
round
in
the
skull;
rather
broad
at
the
muzzle,
with
a
perfectly
black
nose;
the
hair
on
the
muzzle
very
long,
which
should
be
a
rich,
deep
tan,
not
sooty
or
grey.
Under
the
chin,
long
hair,
about
the
same
colour
as
on
the
crown
of
the
head,
which
should
be
a
bright,
golden
tan,
and
not
on
any
account
intermingled
with
dark
or
sooty
hairs.
Hairs
on
the
sides
of
the
head
should
be
very
long,
of
a
few
shades
deeper
tan
than
that
on
the
top
of
the
head,
especially
about
the
ear-roots.
EYES--Medium
in
size,
dark
in
colour,
having
a
sharp,
intelligent
expression,
and
placed
so
as
to
look
directly
forward.
They
should
not
be
prominent.
The
edges
of
the
eyelids
should
be
dark.
EARS--Small,
V-shaped,
and
carried
semi-erect,
covered
with
short
hair;
colour
to
be
a
deep
rich
tan.
MOUTH--Good
even
mouth;
teeth
as
sound
as
possible.
