Silkshire Terrier

She's my best friend and has the most personality I've ever seen within a dog

the most amazing dog i have ever owned..!!

An Ex NBA all star player gave my mom as a gift a puppy from his pack of Yorkshire terriers. My mom named him Rebel as the player attended UNLV. My mom called Rebel her little gentlemen. MY Mom promised to find him a wife she wanted his puppy. But how and where? My mom gave me a ride and while waiting watched a man with what she thought was a Yorkie enter a smoke shop. When he exited she approached and asked if female and not fixed. Missy was a year old Silky and her humane was a sweetheart with the same mindset! On 6/10/10 Missy had 3 one passed one male ours Ringo the other female Tiny.I held Ringo in my palm, I would not see him again for over a year as I was working on a concert tour. My mom & I had a female rescue puppy half shitzu & ? and Rebel and now his son Ringo. When I returned I could not help loving up the 2 I knew. Ringo did not respect the pecking order and would growl at the two if I pet them until they left. Then he would take there spot. At first it was off putting, then it was kinda funny then I fell in love with it. I think they really are companion dogs. Rebel was loyal to my mom in her bed at end of day. I also held Ringo the day he was born. Ringo is devoted and is bat shit crazy in love with me. Ringo has max personality & enough intelligence to be a service dog. When my mom passed in 2013 and I did not want to get out of bed father and son would badger me even pulling duvet off me and bed until i got up and fed and walked them. Sadly at the age of 18 and a little over a year ago Rebel my mom's little gent passed away. Ringo is now an only child that my girl and I treat like he's our son. Ringo can be a pain in the ass especially when it comes to daily routines like eating going for a walk must be at the same time everyday if not becomes vocal & badgers you into capitulating. My girl and I want a puppy out of him we don't know how to stud him out. I really think the Silkshire is a genius and a perfect hybrid of both breeds that is underrated and unknown by most! I'm sure everyone on hear who shared would agree with me!

My Silkshire is loyal and is happiest when he is within 1-2 feet of me. He is sturdy and strong. He never quite relaxes and is always " on duty " He is my best friend and I could get by without me. He prefers to sit next to me rather than on my lap.

Izzy is so sweet and NOT a Barker. She's friendly although timid with doors, railings and crowds. Loves routine: mealtime, snack time, walks, bedtime. Her coat is gorgeous har, beautiful coloring and doesn't shed.my 15 yr old Dorkie died recently and she has been such a comfort. She goes to work with me and is perfectly behaved. She asks to go out by jumping around but uses potty pads when I'm not home or I don't get her 'message '.I'm very blessed to have been given this dog!

Rescued from a Korean meat farm at 2 years, he's a great dog but has been very challenging to housebreak - we're not there yet.

We have had Quinton since he was 12 weeks old. He has made us laugh and brought so much joy to our lives. His training was easy, we had to older miniature poodles and he just followed them to go potty. We have a fenced in yard so he’s king outside. Our poodles have passed on but we now have cats. Quinton loves the first cat that we got 2 years after getting him. The cat even cleans him from time to time. It’s like they are brothers.

She was quite a handful when she was younger. About five she chilled out. Coco wants pets when she wants them. Everything is on her schedule and she is very vocal about it. Specifically treats. When she was younger I trained her to do all sorts of tricks. She tore her acl a few years ago so I backed off on some of those. She's is a good dog most of the time. She cries a lot but that's my fault for giving her what she wants. She is very smart and loves to hunt lizards. She is my first dog and my spirit animal.
