15-20 weeks is better! I think the older the better, 15 - 20 weeks old seems to be the best. My Sister ended up buying a Yorkie from a Breeder that Sold her puppies very young, 6 weeks old so they would appear to be smaller. The Breeder told her that she would only be 4 1/2 lbs. so now that the puppy has grown to 9 1/2 lbs., she finally got her information to register her and found out her real age
and birthdate? By then it was too late, she was already attached to her.
For the puppies sake they learn more from their Mother & Littermates than any Human can teach. I think it's a myth that the younger they are, the stronger their Bond to you. Both of my Yorkies were purchased when they were 20 - 25 weeks old. You shouldn't have any problems.
