Yoni is very much still a baby. At 12 weeks old you should just be picking him up from the breeder. He should have been with his mother and siblings until he was 12 weeks. During this time he learns manners from his mother and proper play habits from his siblings. However since he didn't have this time with his mom and siblings you need to teach him these things. I just want to stress to you how much of a baby he still is. You say you don't have much experience with dogs so i'm guessing you just don't understand the ways of raising a tiny dog. Its good that you are researching and trying to learn. YT is a great place for that. Check the training section for tips. Also you may want to look into other ways of training for your puppy. Cesar is great and i use some of his methods but for a baby i wouldn't use his methods. Try positive re-enforcement training with your puppy. it works really well. You can also try clicker training.

Yoni is a puppy right now, and you need to let him be one. with proper care and training he will turn out to be a great Dog when he grows up.
