This is one of the reasons why I have stayed on YT. I wanted to be able to try to give as much information about the Yorkie breed, legitimate registries, and how reputable breeders work what they do and don't do and why. There are other show breeders on this board that are here for the same reason. I am glad they are.
I hope the OP is indeed serious about being a reputable show breeder. BUT that will be up to her.
Reputable show breeders are very very hard to fool if the intent of anyone approaching them for open/show dogs has not really changed for the reason for breeding as we have seen so many try to appear interested in doing things different. Too many reputable breeders have been burned over the years so are triple cautious.
Actually, most reputable show breeders with winning dogs, good lines etc, have so many other long time reputable show breeders looking for a show dog from them, they really don't want to risk a problem. I know of show breeders that have neutered/spayed a nice show potential rather than taking the risk of someone unknown or already been breeding/selling whatever for a while, who says they want to show.
Remember even the reputable show breeder has to be able to sleep nights.
