Here is the AKC site for breed standard: http://www.akc.org/breeds/yorkshire_terrier/

And the YTCA site: http://ytca.org/frame_index2.html

Both sites say:
"Weight
Must not exceed seven pounds."

There is no minimum. I understand they do not scale the dogs at AKC shows since weight is not a disqualification, so looking well-proportioned is most important. I am basing on reading only -- people like Mardelin (Mary) can give you the real life situation.
