IMO, Sometimes, A very tiny Yorkie may or may not have health problems. Buying from a reputable breeder is extremely important. Someone who knows the breed, and is not breeding for the sole purpose of doing so for the "size" and how tiny bred a a litter of pups will be. Some breeders often will charge more money for the tiny Yorkie's. Which I find wrong. Those are the Puppies That may have the most risk of health complications.
I brought my Yorkie puppy home and she was very tiny to me. I took her to be examined by my vet the first time and she was 3lbs ! 3lbs was very little IMO. My puppy grew to be 7-8 lbs full grown. This is not huge. To me, Suzi is little, and to me, she is perfect size . I am glad she is not tiny.
Their are so many risks involved with a super tiny yorkie. Broken bones, and not being able to get up and down furniture by themselves. Tehir is always the chance od accidental injury of getting stepped on. Dropped, ANything ! + the medical complications increases.
I feel it is most important to look for a reputable breeder, instead of looking for the smallest yorkie.
