| JUST GOT MY SILKY Terrier!!!!! So i just got my Silky Terrier last night on impulse without knowing much about them. Anyways i have some questions. my main one is that i love her coat! Shes all Black with a little brown and my question is how can i keep her black. I like the black alot better then lighter colors but ive read they change as they age. Also is hair dye an option with puppys? Also any treat, food, potty training or just general tips would be very useful thank you!!! |

| Congratulations on your new furbaby. I always recommend lots of exercise, positive reinforcement, and a consistent schedule.

| Curious to know if there's much difference between a Yorkie and a Silky. Found one in a Pet Rescue and thought maybe of getting it to keep my male Yorkie company. |

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | A silky terrier is a mix of a yorkshire terrier and the australian terrier,they were originally called sydney terriers, due to them being raised in Australia.. with beautiful silky hair, a more obolong body and a thiner coat. AKC standards call for an 11 pound maximum weight. I find my silkies to be a bit yappier than my yorkies.. I feel is a sturdier stronger breed less health issues in my opinion, they still can suffer from some genetic faults but a good line silky is a very healthy dog.. fast, strong and super energetic. one more thing, the silkie has a longer body, a yorkie is more square..
