According to the accepted definition, there are 8 planets, and not 12: the previous draft proposal has been rejected. You can have more information here.
About the dwarf planet, it is basicaly a planet that is slightly too small to really be a planet.

Actually, it could have been, and I thought it was until a few hours before your post, when I saw the article in the main page of the Wikipedia. They changed their mind at then end

I'm still going to call Pluto a planet. It's my step on the way to becoming a grumpy unchangable old man.
