Take a look at the two different headpieces: Yorkie head: Silky Head: Silkys tend to be a larger dog than the Yorkie â Yorkies up to 7 lbs and Silkys roughly 8 to 12 lbs. Silkys have a longer muzzle and a longer back. Both breeds can have a distinctly terrier temperaments and can take over their owners households â so both breeds require owners who can be very kind, but very firm. But there is one difference between the two breeds that is perhaps the most helpful to the casual passerby. Yorkies are the second most popular breed in the US, according to the AKC. Silkys rank 75th. So if you see a small silver-coated dog walking down the street, chances are â itâs a Yorkie.
As the Yorkie terrier is one of the world's smallest dogs they do have special needs, and although a dog with a big spirit they are generally even tempered. As they are excellent guard dogs they can have a tendency to bark which is annoying for the neighbours.orkshire Terriers are agile, graceful and an alert with a high level of intelligence. However they can have birth defects and they are notoriously difficult to housetrain. Whilst these are negative aspects that do not mean that a Yorkshire terrier is not for you.
