First of all, don't be looking for a breeder advertising and selling Teacups. They are undersized poor representatives of the breed. often they come with a lot of health issues and cannot be toted around in a purse, they are too delicate.
Some advertising Teacups will sell you a pup that can end up quite large.
A nice size for a yorkie is about 5 lbs or so. However, when you are buying a puppy, no breeder can actually guarantee the size. They can get bigger than expected or smaller.
Good luck in your search. You might try the YTCA their website is Yorkshire Terrier Club of America and click on the Breeder tab. Expect to be interviewed and approved as a prospective new owner.
Lorraine, I may be wrong but I don't know whether or not to take the OP seriously. There have been several threads brought up recently with people from eastern Tennessee, either wanting a tiny puppy or reporting on YT members from East TN being puppymills, to eastern TN breeders directing links to others websites and another selling at flea markets . Two of the kennel names the OP lists are discussed in the other threads.

To the OP, if I'm wrong I do apologize and please follow Lorraine's recommendations and information. With all the other threads back and forth, I've become skeptical and don't know what to believe anymore.
