Question on Silo Structure

When using a silo structure, how do you set up the site if posts fit more than one category, or silos?

For example, consider a site that lets visitors find their perfect dog. They can sort by size and general intelligence.

I want to list two breeds: a Scottish Terrier that's small and smart, and a Labrador that's large and smart.

Does a silo structure work with this setup? Can I have the Scottie under two silos, small and smart, and the Lab under two silos, large and smart? If so, how do you set up the URLs?

    Yeah you can have that.
    Make your 'category' a page and include all the posts under that category on the category page.
    So for ex:

    Homepage Links to Category Page ( via a 301 redirec url) and then that page will have all the posts enlisted under that category
    This way you can have the perfect silo for your site.
    I hope I was able to make you understand.

    Obviously use better/unique page titles.
