Silkies are a cross between a yorkie and an australian terrier. Thet were first bred in Australia and originaly called the Sidney Silky Terrier in 1933
A silky is 1/5 longer then they are tall, a yorkie should be square
A silky is heavier boned and does not have the amount of coat a yorkie has
A silky NEVER has a toplnot, hair is parted to the side on the head.
A silky should always be more terrier in the head and more terrier in attitude
