As for not being sure as to whether they are 100% purebred - while I do not have actual proof of that - I do have my wonderful vet's opinion that they appear to be 100% full Yorkie & I am debating doing DNA test so there will be no doubt
Vets opinion is okay but is not authorative on a purebred status. At the most the vet can say is that they "look" in line with what a purebred puppy looks like in their opinion. The DNA testing is also not a legal option , it is at this point in time still not definitive enough to ascertain purebred status.

Like it or not, you should not claim that they are "purebred" you can state that in your belief and opinion these puppies seem to be the result of a litter produced by two Yorkies - (again the parents were not papered with a reputable registry so hey who knows?)
