Love buying from a reputable breeder

If a pup is guaranteed to be "small" or under 5lbs and the puppy grows to 7lbs at 10 months, does anyone know if the breeder can be made to resolve the matter by a refund of some kind or another puppy, please? I am a pensioner and always craved a tiny 3-4 ib yorkie but couldn't afford one until now. I saw an ad guaranteeing "tiny" and "small" pups and phoned. I was shown a puppy that I had seen a photo on their site and he was 12 weeks and weighed 2 1/2 lbs. He was so adorable, i trusted the breeder when she estimated the pup would grow no more than 5 lbs. and I paid a high price as he was "an exclusive teddy yorkie from Brazil". There were no papers but I insisted that a pedigree should be available for a purebred puppy and she finally agreed if I had a chip implanted and get the vet to confirm that the chip was planted. I have done this, sent the vet's letter and am waiting for the next step from her. I have paid an exorbitant price for puppy that at 7lbs is standard size so I did not get what I paid for. Is thee any advice as to how I cen get compensation in some form? Thanks for listening
