You've already received some great advice, but I just wanted to say - don't be too afraid of a 4-pounder. I have 2 that are in the 3.5-4lb range and they are very sturdy little beings, you might be surprised. The standard for yorkies is under 7 lbs, so they're all going to be on the small size...but 4 pounds is still very doable. If you really liked that breeder who had the 4 pounder, I'd give it some extra thought maybe?
Thank you for the vote of confidence. It is good to know your opinion, I guess it doesn't boil down to only size, but my overall confidence in the breeder that all that is within control is done properly. So, thank you, while I still want to stay within standard, I won't use small size as the sole litmus test.
