[QUOTE=carmen in nj;3841685]Well here is shocker for all...LOL NOT all silkies have a longer snout... My Harry is a silky, bred in Australia, and I brought him here, so I know he is a silkie, DNA tested... and he has a somewhat shorter snout, is a yorkie gene that the silkies have, remember silkies are a mix of Australian Terrier with the Yorkshire terrier..
My opinion on your baby is that he could be either or, we need to see how his body develps of do a DNA test.. one trait All silkies share is the obolong body, they are longer than they are taller...
hugs,
Carmen
thank you for that information Carmen. I did not know that some Silkies can have the smaller snout. Sadie is longer and she passes that gene on to Little Bit who is a lot longer than the rest of them.
