I wouldn't buy from a breeder who would sell me a yorkie at nine weeks. I ended up getting Cookie at 14 weeks and yorkies are still handfuls even then. My girl was a large pup at 14 weeks (about ~3.5 pounds) and I was still watching her like a hawk for hypoglycemia and giving her Nutrical a few times those first 3-4 weeks. I can't imagine what watching a smaller pup at nine weeks must be like. Plus Cookie was so well socialized with people when I got her at 14 weeks, she took to me the first hour I had her. I imagine if I had gotten her at 9 weeks she might be too scared and wouldn't be well socialized to people yet.
