Description
Dog Breed: Skye Terrier (short coat). Adoption Fee: 620. Longing for a puppy who just wants to cuddle, be held, and stay in your lap? Meet Little Terri! . He is a 6-month-old Skye Terrier that is the definition of a cuddle bug. If he could crawl inside your skin just to be closer, he would! At just 6 lbs and growing, this tiny guy is the perfect snuggle size and is working on potty training by following the lead of his foster siblings. He will need someone that can be patient and work with him on this. Skye terriers typically average 35 lbs full grown. This little guy may only make it to 15 lbs. Found as a stray, he’s still a bit shy—but don’t let that fool you. His tail wags like a mini windshield wiper the second he sees you, and he’s getting more playful by the day. Great with dogs big and small, neutered, and eager to please—this little guy’s personality is unfolding beautifully. If you're looking for a loyal little shadow and are local to Tampa vicinity, fill out an application and notate Terri! He’s ready to steal your heart. ❤️ #DogRescue #AdoptDontShop #SkyeTerrier #FosterDogLove #RescueDog #4luckydogspetrescue #4LD #AvailableForAdoption

Overview:
The Skye Terrier is a distinctive and ancient breed originating from the Isle of Skye, Scotland, where they were bred to hunt vermin in rocky terrain. Known for their striking appearance, they possess a long, luxurious double coat—often black, blue, fawn, or silver—and an even longer, elegant fringe of hair falling over their eyes. Beneath this magnificent coat lies a surprisingly sturdy and low-to-the-ground build, giving them a unique, elongated silhouette. Temperamentally, Skyes are loyal and affectionate with their families, but can be reserved with strangers, embodying a proud and independent spirit. While generally good with older, respectful children, their strong prey drive and independent nature might make them less ideal for homes with very young children or other small pets unless well-socialized from puppyhood. Their moderate exercise needs can be met with daily walks, making them suitable for apartment living provided they receive mental stimulation and proper training. Health-wise, they are a relatively robust breed, though some lines may be prone to certain orthopedic issues like intervertebral disc disease due to their long backs, and occasionally patellar luxation or eye conditions, necessitating responsible breeding practices and regular veterinary check-ups.
