For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.As jules says the breed standard for Yorkies says weight should be 'up to seven pounds'. There is no such thing as a Teacup Yorkie, Miniature Yorkie or Toy Yorkie, they are all just Yorkshire Terriers. Its just that some breeders do not breed correct sized ones, so people think they have to get one of the others to make sure they get a small one. Most Yorkies you see are way above the standard size and if people keep breeding from them then the breed will get bigger, and will start to resemble something totally different.
