If you are approaching breeders to just buy a couple of puppies telling them you want to show, they will turn you down flat.
IF you are lucky, you may find a breeder willing to CO own one with you usually a male. You can start there and it will give you something to show. YOu also will not be getting a 3 months old if the breeder is reputable. A puppy can be potential at 3 or 4 months but a show dog is not easily determined until at least 7 or 8 months old and then it can still go 'off'.
For showing, you have to learn grooming the show Yorkie, handlng the show yorkie in the ring if you want to show it yourself.
Many many approach show breeders, say they want to show and want to buy a puppy for that purpose to eventually breed. What has happened most of the time is puppy is raised, bred over and over, puppies sold as 'champion lines' and the dog has never seen the show rings and buyer never shows up at a dog show again if they managed to gettheir hands on a puppy.
There is not much a show breeder hasn't experienced or heard before, what catches their attention more is what you do and what you are willing to agree to in their terms for a show dog.

Sounds like some solid information, I have nothing to add but wanted to see what kind of feedback you received on this completely out of curiosity. My dogs are strictly pets for me to love and care for to the best of my ability.
