It is impossible to pick a show prospect at 3 months. Do you mind if I ask why you are going outside the U.S.A. to get a show dog? I know many very reputable breeders here in the U.S.A. that have high quality show dogs. What is your experience with showing and grooming Yorkies? Do you have a mentor?
I advise you to use caution because I have heard that some of the lines from Mexico have health issues. Are the tails undocked on the pups? One of them looked like the tail was undocked. Of course you can show a pup with a full tail but it is harder to finish a dog them.
As for which to buy, I feel that if you are new to showing that it would be better to start with a male because with females you have to start dealing with their heat cycles at around 7 months or older and that can effect their personality.
Is the breeder requiring you to sign a contract? What kind of health guarantees to they have? Investing in a show dog and showing is a huge expense. It can be very rewarding but it can also be very risky. I hope you keep us updated on your progress.
