| Overview: | The Silky Terrier is a very bright dog who is a quick thinker and quick mover. He is inquisitive by nature and very energetic. Thus, it may be a good idea to treat this pup to a course in obedience training. |
| Breed Group: | Toy |
| Weight (lbs): | 8-11 |
| Height (in): | 9-10 |
| Colors: | Blue and tan. |
| Coat: | Hair is long, smooth, silky, and shiny. There is no undercoat. |
| Character: | Silky Terriers are always upbeat and lively. Known for their intelligence and loyalty, they are very protective of their family. |
| Temperament: | This breed needs to be socialized around cats at an early age, if they're expected to live peacefully with them later on (they like to chase them). They are normally very affectionate with children, but they will bark at visitors. |
| Care: | Its coat needs brushing or combing every other day. He should be bathed regularly, and the coat must be trimmed occasionally. |
| Training: | This breed is very intelligent, making training an easy process. |
| Activity: | The Silky Terrier can adjust to your family's activity level with no problem. |
| Country of Origin: | Australia |
| Health Issue: | This breed is generally healthy, though there may be minor concern over intervertebral disc disease, elbow dysplasia, patellar luxation, and diabetes. |
| Life Expectancy: | 12-15 |
