My suggestion to you is continue watching him. 9 weeks the about the time you start to watch a potential.....but, a firm decision can't be made for a few months yet. Attending a dog show, to get a yorkie/exhibitor or a AKC judge to evaluate him would be a good place to start. But, in the mean time start doing some preliminary training with him, stacking him on grooming table, socializing him...etc. I see you're from Syracuse, NY......The YTCA/YTofNY Specialty is being held at the New Yorker Hotel in Manhattan, Feb 9-11....if you can get there with your puppy it would be a great place to have him evaluated.....lots of well known experienced exhibitor/breeders will be there.
