Not the good ones LOL. Good, reputable breeders are trying to get pups that will be 4-7 lbs. They are not trying to get tinies so they don't breed for that.

But sometimes it happens.

Some breeders do have longer leg vs. shorter ones but the only way to know who prefers which is to start going to Yorkie shows. (difficult to see on websites)

If I were you, not in a rush and wanting a beautiful, standard, but smaller Yorkie I would go to the YTCA website and contact breeders there. In the meantime watch this site for listings.

Why do you want a smaller one? Do you work fulltime outside the home? Will you be able to provide the extra time and care they require?

Just a sample of the many questions a reputable breeder will ask.
