That white hair you are seeing underneath the black coat is probably silvery-gray. The silvery-gray will most likely replace all of the black hair eventually, and the red hair will also lighten up in color. That is normal for Yorkies.
From the hair description, it sounds like your Yorkie will end up having what is called a silky coat. I can't see the color of the camera flash in your Yorkie's eyes, but it's often stated that if the flash color is blue or green, then the Yorkie will have a silky coat, and if it's red or yellow, the Yorkie will have a cotton coat.
