OK, I know I'm a little late on posting this but maybe you will receive it... Now I'm not a breeder or an expert with yorkies or anything but here is what I went though with my first Lucy when I brought her home so maybe this will help.

When I first got Lucy I had never been on here and didn't know mcuh about puppies or yorkies.... I got Lucy at 7weeks and she was only 8oz. LAter I was told that was to young and to small, but I didn't know that when I got her.... Until you are able to get nutracal see if you have any karo syrup or something in the same in case she goes into a hypoglocemic seizure... That is what happened to my baby.... When we got her she ate hard food but after her seizure she did not want to ... the vet told us to feed her every two hours chicken flavored baby food. (just a spoon full) She would actually eat this most of the time. The baby food helps with a pup getting water also. The vet said she wouldn't drink much water b/c of all the water in the babyfood.... So theres just an idea if you can't get the pup to eat something solid. After about a month when she had a clean bill of health we started mixing in hard foor and eventually took out the babyfood all together.

Crystal (Hope this helps some)
