What is a Yorkie Silky?

The Yorkie Silky is a designer or mixed breed dog that I have never seen before but for information purposes I’m going to give you an idea of what that means.

Since both breeds resemble each other I’m not sure the point of breeding them but like I said this is more for information purposes only.

Yorkie Silky puppies would come from breeding a full blood Yorkshire Terrier to a full blood Silky Terrier.

A standard size Yorkie is 7 to 8 lbs and a standard size Silky Terrier can be up to 11 lbs or more.

Designer Puppies tend to be healthier than full blood dogs and this is why designer or hybrid dogs are quickly becoming as popular as many of the AKC registered breeds.

There are many registries where you can get registry papers including 5 generation pedigrees also.

The best advice I can give you is study each individual breed and determine both the temperament and characteristics in each of the breeds.

Most of your designer or hybrid breeds come in many different sizes, including: Teacup, Tiny Toy, Miniature and Standard.

It's best to ask the breeder the size and weight of the parents to get a better idea of what size the puppy your interested will be as an adult. It is harder with the mixed breeds to determine an exact adult weight.
