These small dogs, also known as Sydney Silky or Silky Terrier, originated in Australia, as the name suggests, and over the years have become a popular companion dog in many other countries around the world, including here in the UK. The Australian Silky Terrier may be classed as a Toy breed, but it is far from being purely a lap dog.
