Mattie is a Silky Terrier. She weighs about 7 lbs. and is very sturdy for her size. The breed is from Australia, but Mattie doesn’t talk funny, like they do “down under.” She loves to do her tricks for the patients: she dances, plays hide-and-seek-the-treat, sits pretty, and speaks (in her hospital voice, of course). Her rollover-and-over trick always brings giggles. She thinks of herself as a working dog, although her official breed classification is Toy.
