I do want to re-iterate that weekends are often not a good time to expect a response; show breeders are usually travelling often times to out of state shows; or competing at different events.
Telling them a bit about yourself, what you are looking for in a pup, is excellent advise.
I think it is great to go out to the shows and try to meet the breeders; here is what you can do; go to
www.akc.org, click on Events, and pick the states you want to search for shows in. Then when you find a show that is one you wish to attend; note the Show superintendent. Then you can go to that website (ie show superintendents) and usually 7-10 days after the show entries close, they will post how many entries of each breed have entered this show. Here this will tell you how many Yorkshire Terriers are entered. Then you have advance notice of if and how many plan to be at the show.
There is a good article in the YT library on how to find a reputable breeder.
Good luck with your search.
