What is the size difference between a standard and a minature eskie?
Eskies overall are not considered large dogs. The absolute factor in Eskie size is height, toe to shoulders, rather than weight. Generally, standard Eskies measure 15-19 inches, whereas miniatures measure 12-15 inches. The AKC and UKC have slightly different breed standards.Weight can fluctuate based on the dog’s bone structure and diet history. Some rescue Eskies have come from neglectful environments and can be underweight or overweight. This cosmetic problem, in most cases, and can be easily corrected with nutritionally sound diet and exercise.
