Hair on muzzle, feet, front of forelegs and hocks should be short. All colors and markings are acceptable. The Silken Windhound moves with a relaxed and level gait, which has great reach in the forward motion and great drive from the hind quarters. Constricted or excessive up and down movement of the legs when viewed from the side are faulty. When viewed from the front or rear, legs must move back and forth with pendulum freeness and without any side or inward motions.
Feet seek a center of gravity beneath the animal.
Too narrow or too wide movement and crossing, interfering feet are faults. Though sometimes dignified in its bearing, the Silken Windhound tends to be quite expressive in its display of affection towards those it is fond of.
