About the Silky-Pin
The Silky-Pin is a hybrid dog that is made up of a combination of two different purebreeds. It's a cross between the Miniature Pinscher and the Silky Terrier. We've found the best method for understanding the characteristics of the Silky-Pin is to read both of its ancestors descriptions taking note of their temperaments, size and general look.
