I think that you are putting the cart before the horse. get yourself the mentor. A good looking yorkie does not mean it is show quality. There is a lot more involved to showing a dog then just buying it. You need to learn how to show a dog and how to groom your dog for show. You need to know how old a dog needs to be to be entered and it goes on and on.
The chances of a good reputable breeder selling you a show puppy are next to nill. You need to do your research - go to some shows- buy books on the breed- learn the pedigrees- talk to experienced breeders and learn, learn and learn. Read the old threads on YT, read about genetics, read about raising a litter of puppies learn about the care needed for a pregnant mom. The list goes on and on it takes baby steps to do it right. Otherwise you are like a person trying to fly a plane with no instruction. trying to do this by the seat of the pants will hurt any dogs that you purchase and anyone who might purchase a puppy that you might breed.
