Your not going to find a reputable breeder that breeds for bigger Yorkies because they will breed to better the breed which means they breed for Yorkies that do not exceed 7 pounds. If you buy from a breeder who does breeder for bigger Yorkies you need to be prepared that they may not breed for health and you might end up with health issues. If size is a really big deal you might want to adopt a yorkie that is fully grown because no one can completely guess the exact adult weight. All of mine are bigger but none came from good breeders. Callie who is 15 pounds came from a puppy mill and has suffered because of it. I rescued Joey at 9 weeks old after having had two homes and he got to 10 pounds. penny I rescued at 8 months old at 12 pounds she had a terrible uti and was used to nothing when I got her. Ollie came from a not so great breeder who couldn’t get rid of him because he was going to be bigger and he is charting to be 10 pounds but is 9 at 7 months.
