The newest vaccine protocal calls for Rabies to be administered at 16 weeks, but you'll have vets vary on when they give the vaccine (never earlier than 12 weeks).

It's a cute puppy but it doesn't really look all yorkie to me. It looks a lot like a few maltese/yorkie mixes that I've seen. But I have seen all-gold yorkies too so it's possible that he's all yorkie. He also looks older than 14 weeks to me too but the vet could probably tell you the age of the puppy.

Before I bought this puppy, I would definitely made sure it was taken to your vet to be evaluated. I would also ask the breeder for more information about this puppy and its history. I would ask about the parents and why they weren't at her house. It really sounds like she's selling the puppy for someone else or it's a mixed breed puppy. There are just a lot of details that were left out. Just make sure the puppy is healthy and that you are satisfied with the answers she gives you before you go ahead with it.
