Donating YT 14K Club Member | Silkies and yorkies are two different breeds. From what I understand, yorkies were bred down from silkies but AKC has classified them as two different breeds. Here's the links to AKC... Silky http://www.akc.org/breeds/silky_terrier/index.cfm Yorkie http://www.akc.org/breeds/yorkshire_terrier/index.cfm And no, there aren't any stupid questions...

| Actually the silkie is a cross between the yorkie and the australian terrier. |
