Default Newbie here. Help!

I just got this little guy a couple of days ago (3 months old). My two big concerns are weaning him from my bed, I did get a large crate and plan on starting tonight. He is very quiet, but cries and barks when he can't see me. My neighbor across the street shows his two dogs, and said to just put him in the crate with some water and be prepared for a couple of sleepless nights. Now, I don't want to ban him from the bed forever. If I put him back in bed when he settles down, will I undo everything?

My other concern is housebreaking him. Any tips here. When he goes outside I praise the hell out of him and say nothing if he goes in the house. Any tips on this forum?

Thanks a lot, and glad I could find a place to communicate with others. I've never even owned a dog before, and this is also my first yorkie. I just love this little guy.
