Your male will be over the standard size for breeding. You will need to have an oversized female and from those parents you will get even larger pups. Many breeders are not interested in the standard, but that is what makes the Yorkie a Yorkie. If you do not follow the standard you might as well breed mixes. Five to six pounders are what 50% of the people want who contact me..50% want smaller, around 3 to 4 pounds...about once or twice a year I get an inquiry for a larger pup.
