They are bigger then you think, in as much as weight and length, but short little legs. They are breeding, but only in limited numbers. I hope they don't become extinct. The breed historian is Sine Threlfall, Eilean a Cheo Kennels, Ardvasar, Isle of Skye, IV45 8RU, if anyone is interested in finding out their true history.

I love the Skye breed. My first boy was about 38 lbs as an adult. My girls were a few lbs smaller. They are a healthy breed, not ruined by indescriminate breeding, like the Yorkie has. They are very reserved with strangers. You are lucky to see a drop as these are very rare. My friend just hada litter and believe 7 of the 9 are drop and all are cream. Now thats a RARE litter!! I better not say rare too much or they will be next to be exploited by greeders.
