Wow!!! My friend Corinne sent me this link last night and I have just finished reading this entire thread. Mathew you have just made my day!!!! What an absolutely amazing young man your are. Before you posted about being a student, I would have guessed you to be much older because of the level of maturity and responsibility you have shown. Everything you have written here just warms my heart, makes me smile
. Social work indeed seems to be your calling, from the kindness you have shown.
Myles was one lucky little guy that you found him. In a way, I hope that you don't find the owner (please don't y'all flame me for this), because in your loving care any animal will obviously thrive. You have been given great advice here, and one particular suggestion stands out in my mind - asking a potential owner to show you a picture of Myles as proof of ownership. Also, watch very carefully his reaction if an individual comes to actually see him. You could do a trial run just to ensure the validity of the recognition. Invite over a friend/neighbor whom Myles has not yet met. Watch his reaction when they enter the room. This will give you an indication of his regular behavior - does he always get excited to see ANYBODY ? My Mango does, so even a stranger could have the "appearance" of being familiar to her.
What brand of food are you giving Myles? The vomiting worries me. Here is a great link for dog food reviews. A 5 star rating is excellent for Yorkies, so I am linking you directly to there:

Canidae and Evangers, amongst others, are great. Mango likes the latter because of the tiny kibble and great taste.
Mathew, I should warn you that if your realize it or not, your heart is slowly being stolen. Yorkies have an infallible way of doing this.Please keep us updated and bless you again for your kind and generous heart.
Your Mom must be waaaaay proud of you,
Lauren
