Hi there , I just looked in one of my books. The Silky Terrier is a little bigger then a Yorkie . The breed was developed in Austrian, in the early 1900s. In 1959 the Australian National Kennel Council renamed the breed from, Sydney Silky Terrier to the Australian Silky Terrier.
I would think they are around the same cost as a Yorkie. Remember, you usually get what you pay for,so do some research on the breeder . Good luck on your search.
There are breeders around.
