I can say that we haven't had any rats or mice since we got our dog. Of course, we didn't have any rats or mice before we got our dog, either <g>.

I don't believe they are related. The silky's resemble larger Yorkshire or Yorkie's . Our WWII vets brought the Silky's to America from Australia which also helped start the breed here!

You bet !

We have two Silky Terriers (14 lb and 13 lb) - they are a purebred mix of Yorkshire and Australian Terriers that originated in Australia bred for rats and snakes on the farms there...

They both love the new R-Pod.

Thanks for the welcome aboard!

Welcome, Terrier-Pod and congratulations on your new 174!
Bet you have a lot of memories of that first camping trip 40 years ago!
 
Glad you didn't have any hitches with your pod your first trip out!
 
Happy Pod-ing!

Welcome to the wonderful world of podding! Can I assume you have a terrier? My smooth fox is always checking the posts for possible friends .  Since she is the big reason we got the pod, I have to let her rule.
