welcome to yt,
my name is cocoa and my yorkie's name is lucky. this is what my breeder told me also. triple the weight at 8 weeks. so far it seems to be working for me. my lucky was 3 pounds at 8 weeks when i got him. he's currently 6 months and around 7 1/2 - 8 pounds. he hasn't grown in a month so im not sure if he's done or not. i think he'll probably stop at 9 pounds. at this point it doesnt matter, we love him to death. he really put this light in my daughters eyes. he's a part of the family now.
