I just have to say how refreshing it is to have someone ask for a satndard yorkie! Too many people have put the emphasis on them being TINY that some breeders have been making promises that it will be between 2-4 lbs. In reality that same puppy will likely be around 7 pounds and many time much more. Look on the AKC.org website to find reputable breeders. Then call and speak with someone from thier list and explain what you are looking for. A breeder from the AKC site will be reputable (although I am sure there are exceptions) and can help you find a breeder in your area if they don't personally have what you are looking for. It is a great starting point. Good luck
