Your puppy isn't even 12 weeks old, it's still a baby and accidents are going to happen. My 4 yorkies were 100% pad trained at 5 months old, after all vaccines were given (they were 5 1/2 mos old) I started training for outdoor potty only, at 7 months old they were 100% trained to potty outdoors only with no accidents in the house and gained free roam on entire home. Potty training on pads or outdoors is not a over night thing, it takes time and lots of patience with high value treats and lots of praise when she makes where she is supposed to. Outdoor potty should be on a schedule same time every day even if she has made on the pad or floor take her outside. Dogs are creatures of habit, once you start something they expect it every day, reason why a schedule is a must for outdoor potty time.
