Can you train a dog to use training pads during the night and to pee outside during the day?
Yes you can, but there are a few dogs that would rather hold it in then go inside of the house. I trained my dogs as pups to do both. I don't waste my money on pads, but use newspaper (quite thick) and if it's been used I bag it separately and throw it in the garbage and clean the floor with bleach and water.
I let my dog out just before I retire for the night and they are good until morning. Adult dogs can hold urine for up to 8 hours and shouldn't go any longer than this.
If you catch your dog urinating or having a #2, then soak the urine onto the pad and take a small piece of the #2 and place on the pad and bring inside where you would keep it. Place your dog near it and pat them and say 'good dog.' With patience and kind words most dogs will get the drift fairly quickly.
What do u do when your dog doesn't listen?

Why are hybrid dogs becoming so popular lately?
Many breeds have dogs have solely been bred amongst their own breeds and some problems are arising genetically and therefore there can be health problems to psychological problems with the dog. What we use to call a "mutt" or "Heinz 57" and could be bought at your local shelter for very little is not big business and now classified as the "designer dog." Breeders take the best of two breeds and combine them making a new breed that sheds less, has a better temperament, is more agile and has fewer genetic health issues. The latest designer dogs are: The Cockalier (a mix of a Cocker Spaniel and a Cavalier King Charles. The Border Collie Terrier is a cross etween a Border Collie and a Jack Russell Terrier. The short hair of the Jack Russell means less shedding and the Border Collie is one of the most intelligent breeds and both breeds are extremely agile. The best hybrid is the "Chiweenie!" Between a Dachshund and a Chihuahua. It produces longer legs on the Dachshund (so fewer back problems), but it's not as tiny as a Chihuahua so it's more child friendly.

How do you make a barking dog silencer?
Get a bark collar of a high pitch sound emitter.
A bark collar will beep as a warning at the first bark, shock lightly for the second and a little more for the third. I used one of these on my dog and they work well.
A high pitch sound emitter will let out a high pitch sound that only the god can hear and will startle the dog into staying quiet.
These devices will not harm the dogs and are great for dogs in the learning process.
