I adopted a 3-year-old Silky from a local rescue organization in January 2022. I have been her mom now almost 5 months. I have had many dogs in my life and loved them all, but this little girl has to be the most affectionate one ever! This video has really helped me to understand some of her traits and actions, like lifting that one leg, her being so mesmerized in the back yard of other critters making sounds (she doesn't hear me when I call her), her desire to take off running when I am walking her, her love of cuddling, etc, As the video reveals, she follows me all over the house to see what I am doing (nosy!) She sits in a kitchen chair to watch what I am doing and loves to look out the kitchen window. None of my other dogs did these things. She is a beautiful soul in every way, and I feel so blessed to have her!

My wife and I owned a silky Terrier for 16 years, before he passed away. We loved and enjoyed our little "Roger" from day one. He became very close with my wife because back then, I was deployed often with my unit, as an Active Duty Service Member. We never had kids so Roger filled in the lonely moments very well. Great animal. However, there is one issue you must be aware of, the hair! You can either spend a lot of time caring for the long hair such as bathing, washing, combing, etc...…. Or, spend at least $150.00 a year on close grooming of the hair. We kept him with a close haircut, because many of our tours were in hot climates and made life easier on Roger. I loved that dog! He passed away in 2006 and I buried him. I wanted to, he was my friend. Also, no one would see my tears.

My silky is 10 and I've had him since he was 11 weeks old. He is the love of my life. This video was so fun to watch. I can't say he is as rambunctious as these little guys, he is very well behaved, probably the most well behaved dog I've ever owned. He does not need to be on leash, he never leaves my side. If something catches his eye while out for our walk he'll look but not dart away from me for anything. He is a good boy

The other - a true terrier - confronted a snake in our yard, barks at everything that moves in the front and all around the fence, totally has to be touching me, but always on guard, doesn't like toys. I love this breed.

Love the video. We recently rescued what we were told by our vet was a Yorkie but having seen various videos and photos we are sure our Sofie is an 18 moth old Silver Silky terrier. She is longer and bigger than a Yorkie at 4.5 kilos. She is so loving and playful but has all the traits of the breed including barking a lot. She learnt her new name and to "come" in a week but house training is proving difficult. We are working on "leave" and "sit" but "stay" and "quite" are a real challenge. She has made her place on top of the sofa where she can see the entrance and after sleeping with us has decided the small settee in the bedroom is hers. Love her and looking forward to many happy years.

We adopted our girl from the local SPCA. We have owned 2 yorkies and thought we were adopting a yorkie. That’s what the SPCA and paperwork said. Once we had her for a while, she just didn’t seem like the typical yorkie. Her build and her attitude seemed off for a yorkie. Then we saw your video and we know now she is a Silky. All the trials you described were spot on except for the lap dog comment. We adopted a two year old with boundless energy but after a good run and chase session she is ready to sleep on dad’s lap for a rest. Unless of course there is a sudden noise that she must investigate. She’s a SILKY!!

I adopted a "Yorkie" but he was so different from my other Yorkie. I labeled hm my ADD child, as I researched his traits they fit a Silky Terrier to a T! He was larger & longer, quite the digger, very territorial with his toys & has no problem taking on my son's German Shorthair if he takes his toy! He will bolt if you're not guarding the gate when you leave, & is an expert at catching rabbits much to my dismay, since rabbits scream like babies when caught, oh my nightmares. My Yorkie will bring me her prey, my Silky will eat his! Finally I took him to Purdue University & the vets there determined he was definitely a Silky! He is my comedian, loves my attention & gets quite jealous with me but will defer to my female Yorkie most of the time, lol. My Yorkie is so calm compared to him, he has definitely been a wonderful addition to my family & I wouldn't trade him for the world! Thanks for a wonderfully entertaining & extremely informative video.

Marlene W I hurt for you. I lost my yorkie about 1 1/2 years ago. I was especially attached to her. Believe this for it happened to me. I had a dream one nite and she was walking towards me with a man whom I did not see his face but the robe he wore had greek symbols on the hem and his robe appeared to be a darker color maybe a royal brown. Anyhow she was right by his side when walking. She saw me and then looked in his direction. She looked again at me maybe 2 times and each time she would look up at him. Then that was it and I woke up. Yes dogs go to that special place and wait for us to connect at a later time. I was very attached to her perhaps that is why this happened. It gave me comfort but I still miss her dearly. Thankyou and have a blessed day.

Very adorable, energetic and friendly pet that got along well with most cats and dogs he met. Now I have a female Jack Russell terrier mix that was adopted as a rescue adult pet and she is cute too. terriers like to curiously chew, claw, scratch on anything they find so be careful with small items, sticks, rocks, trash, hamsters and new leather furniture.

In most parts it describes the Silky Terrier as I know him perfectly. Ok, I never met one with a dropping ear or of fawn colour, but perhaps that's just a difference in national breedlines. Just one thing I definetly cannot go along with, and that's the statements about trainability. Sure, they are terriers and not bordercollies, so they won't do things just for the fun of doing them for you. But if you've got the knack of training them in a way that makes them believe they invented stuff by themselves, they are so great! With my former Silkies I did lots of Obedience Trials, and won lots of them, over lots and lots of bordercollies. It's just that you rather should convince a silky than command him!

I have a 6 year old silky and he's my little love. We've been around the world together. When people ask me what this breed is like I tell them it's like having a really naughty 5 year old son who apologizes very sweetly.

I had a Silky when I was a kid, I use to take him fishing with me. He also was an excellent ratter

I have a Silky Terrier and people always think he's a Yorkie. Silky Terriers are cuter than Yorkies. Sorry not sorry. 🤷♀️

I had a silky terrier for almost 16 yrs. I tell people that the easiest difference, is that a silky has a larger head than a yorkie does.

I just love my yorkie/silky terrier. Mines a jumper. You have just described my dog to a tee. Our dog sitter says he's very needy. Did you say silkys have longer ears?

I have 2 Silkies a female and male from same parents but different litters. So first thing I had them spade and nuetered when I got them. I got Luvie Lou first and later her brother AlCapone from their Mom's last litter. I had no interest in breeding or accidents. They have been wonderful additions to our family. Before having these little balls of energy we had large dog a 125 lb female Doberman for 7 years- big contrast.

I loved my Silky more than I like most people. I had her for 18 years and had to have her put down due to cancer.

So accurate, my silky at the back-door at night ready to get out as fast as possible, assuming he's got a possum he's after lol. And I've a litter of puppies and I think how funny would it be selling them as rotwielers and they never got bigger 😅

The drop ear is from rubbing the ears. Don’t touch the ears. I had known this from another dog a skipperke. My dogs mother had many children mauling the ears, both her ears were dropped over. My girl has both ears up. Just don’t rub or maul the ears. Especially as puppies. All your info here is new to me. She is a silky. Her mom may be one but the owner keeps her clipped. They are a dairy farm and she get covered in that, causing them to use clippers for the all over cut. With that cut and the dropped ears she doesn’t look like a yorkie anymore. My girl found a mouse and total pandemonium ensued. Without her alarm I wouldn’t know how many mice we had. It was total infestation. They were all thru the books and sofa. The sofa had been chewed and burrowed into. It had to go. She was manic. I was using glue traps. As soon as I put down she promptly stepped on one. Getting that off her foot was a mess, but the worst was yet to come. Another glue trap had a mouse she grabbed the mouse and was tearing into it. She managed to have her chin and face stuck fast. A quick haircut fixed that.

I've had 4 Silkies. 2 runts, a runner and the best mommy ever. Rudi, the runner was never allowed on my Mother's bed. When she came down with cancer, he'd sit by the side of her bed all day, so she could rub his head. He would stay there, all day long. I would never consider a another dog breed but having a fence is a strong recommendation. They will wear you out but their love is never ending. They will entertain you all day long and love you, all night long. But don't buy if you are away during the day.
