Honestly, a wolf that young would pose so little combat threat that I wouldn't even bother statting them up. It's a baby--it doesn't have the strength to do any kind of real damage, and a single hit is likely to kill it.
If you really need stats, I'd suggest just using the stats of a cat and removing the claw attacks. I'd probably even assume the wolf pup doesn't have Weapon Finesse either... it's not exactly "RAW" to have a creature with no feats, but it doesn't make much sense for it to be able to do very much at all, I can't imagine it's old enough for the type of coordination a proper attack entails.
I'm kind of with Alice Margatroid on this. If you really need stats I'd say reduce the str, con, and wis; and keep dex the same as a normal wolf (maybe give it a 1 point increase if it's an odd number to show it's slightly more dextrous being younger).

Use the normal dog statblock if they are big enough to be a threat.
Templates are more for large creatures... a young t-rex or a young bullette work well.
Edit: The YOUNG template is for large creatures, not all templates!
Well, when a mommy wolf and a daddy wolf love each other very much...
Ok, had to get that out of my system.
Seriously, we talking like wolf pup here? Like, less than 6 months old? Template won't work for that, just wing it.
For the most part what you ended up with looks ok but, as you said the Dex needs to drop by a good 10 points or more. A full grown wolf only has a Dex of 15. A clumsy still growing pup isn't going to be higher than that and certainly not higher by that much.
