Default Traits

My little Mylee is an AKC Silky Terrier. Aside from her smaller size, 7 lbs, she is pretty true to all other Silky Standards. She is terrier through and through. I definitely see the Silky Terrier in my Mylee, and to me, she doesn't look or resemble anything Yorkie at all. Silkys don't normally like bows in their hair, or being dressed, but she will tolerate it. She doesn't give up when she puts her mind to something, like figuring out a way to get on the table, or in the trash. She is relentless. You definitely have to be on your toes and think one step ahead of them, because they are very smart little burgers, and will go back when you are not looking and keep trying. I LOVE that spunk about her, but I often say, some families would have given up on her if they didn't understand terrier triumph before choosing this breed. I will also say, she thrives on training. She LOVES learning new tricks, and she watches everything going on around her. When she get's it, she doesn't forget it. She is so so smart. I love this little girl. She has taught me a lot about myself too.

Here she is getting a hair cut.
