Honestly, I think the search for a companion should almost always be done by the person whose dog it will be. Do you know exactly what she wants in a dog? Registration, coloring, temperment, etc...?
You have a very small time frame, and I worry that you'll end up buying a low-quality dog, just to get him/ her in time. I, for one, waited over a year to find the perfect breeder, and 4 months for my yorkie once I found her. Thats a typical time frame to find a healthy yorkie.
I'm not trying to judge you or your friend, I just don't want either of you to suffer the way I have seen many people suffer after buying an unhealthy puppy...
