I don't think you can do anything. Breeders really don't know how much the puppy is doing to weigh until they are an adult its normally just a best guess. There are many yorkies who are over 7 pounds, mine being one of them at 16 pounds. He sounds like he could be a broker and probably got the dog from a back yard breeder or a puppy mill that's why researching a breeder before you get the dog is so very important.
