I just noticed you said you wanted one with yorkie coloring. With a mix, you have no idea how they will turn out as an adult. I've seen several yorkie mix puppies that started out looking like a yorkie and ended up with completely different colored hair. I do know of one maltese/yorkie mix that looks just like a yorkie, but ears are down and the tan is almost white. I know of a shihtzu/yorkie mix that started out black and tan and ended up being all a reddish color. I know of several maltese/yorkie mixes that started out with yorkie colors and grew to be almost white. And I've seen yorkie/poodle mixes of all colors. So you may pick out a puppy that looks like a yorkie, but it could grow to look nothing at all like one with a completely different colored coat.
