If you can I would talk to the breeder and question why they are sending a yorkie home at 8 weeks.
I undertand many larger breeds 8 week is the norm.. but with little guys the extra month does help give them a good start and most breeders keep them 12 weeks. Even if you wait a couple more weeks it will help.
Now.. saying that.. like you I did not know and brought Remy home at 8 weeks. She had a rough go of it being so very small (1 pound) and if I could do it over I would have questioned why they sent her home that early.
Make sure you have nutri cal.. low blood sugar is common is the young ones. Also be sure to socialize her when you can.. some of the benefits of leaving them with their mommy is the socialiation. I was lucky.. my Remy was adopted by Bailey (a fur member of the family)
Good luck
