Silky Terrier
|
This is Barbie and her family. She is a SILKY TERRIER. The Silky Terrier originated in Sydney, Australia, and is a cross between the Australian Terrier and the Yorkshire Terrier. The Silky is lively, feisty, curious, full of energy, and quick to learn. They like some exercise and make a great traveling companion. Silkies can be territorial and some like to bark. The most common color is light to dark blue-grey with brown; all are born black. Silkies make great house pets as they seldom shed and are normally good with children. The average Silky Terrier stands 8-10 inches (20-25 cm) and weighs 8-12 pounds. Their coat is 5-6 inches long, silky, and parts down the middle of the back. They are a healthy breed, prone to no real problems. "A big dog in a little body" PLEASE CONTACT US ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF PUPS. |
