Very Pretty Girl! My silky was an owner surrender. His papers (ACA) and all of his vet records say he is Yorkie. When I first saw him I knew he was very large and different than all Yorkies I've seen then I was informed that no he wasn't a Yorkie but a Silky. The previous owners purchased him from a bad breeder that sells or sold their pups in mall parking lot. I did a little research online and sure enough he's Silky. I really didn't know the difference before. Love him to pieces! He's a bundle of energy and very loving. His name is Rocket because he's faster than a rabbit!
