Description
Dog Breed: Silky Terrier / Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie (short coat). Hi, I’m a 3‑year‑old Yorkie/Silky Terrier, and I’m ready for my fresh start. My beautiful golden coat usually grows long and silky, but I had to be shaved because I came in with heavy matting. Don’t worry — it will grow back just as gorgeous as ever. I weigh 13 pounds, I’m adorable, and I have the sweetest little personality to match. I’m looking for a loving home where I can feel safe, cared for, and cherished the way I deserve.

Overview:
The Silky Terrier is a charming and spirited companion, originating in Australia in the late 19th century. Bred from the Yorkshire and Australian Terriers, they were developed to be versatile pets, suitable for both companionship and pest control. Physically, Silkys are small, elegant dogs, typically weighing between 8-10 pounds, distinguished by their long, flowing, steel-blue and tan coat that is remarkably soft to the touch – hence their name. Beneath this beautiful coat lies a sturdy and agile body. Temperamentally, they are known for being alert, confident, and intelligent, possessing a typical terrier zest for life. Despite their small size, they are quite active and enjoy playtime, but also relish curling up for a cuddle. Their adaptable nature makes them suitable for various living situations, including apartment living, provided they receive regular exercise and mental stimulation. They can be good with respectful children and other pets, though early socialization is key. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of breed-specific concerns such as patellar luxation and dental issues. With proper care and training, a Silky Terrier makes a delightful and devoted family member.
