Silkese Dog - Patience

by Dmitriy and Jenniffer
(Santa Ana, California)

Our Silkese dog is a complete contradiction to her name. We adopted her along with a Coonhound named Shelby and they can be quite wild sometimes. She is very tough!! She likes to hang out with the bigger dogs, and even though she gets trampled sometimes, she gets right up and continues to play. For the longest time we thought that she is a border terrier, but because of this site, we realized that she is a Silkese. She is 12 inches tall and weighs less than 10 pounds, but I'm curious if she will get any bigger considering she is only 5 months old. Anywho, thanks for the site and helping us figure out what type she is :)
