any quick tips for getting my dogs to go to the bathroom outside?? or is it true, you cant teach an old dog new tricks? (link)

Putting a dog's face in it and saying NO doesn't work. It teaches the dog that going near it when there is poop on the floor is bad. The only time it works, is if the dog is in the act of going, then you yell NO and make a loud noise.
Praise works best.

I would like to get some sort of animal as a pet. The only thing is that my dad is allergic to furry animals, and my family is very busy, so we couldn't give the pet 24/7 care that often. so, what kind of pet should I get? (link)

You need a low maintenance pet like a fish. If you're not going to be around for hours at a time and the animal will be left alone, DO NOT GET A CAT OR DOG.
Imagine if everyone you knew and loved left you alone with nothing to do and no idea when they would return? Animals need attention and love all of the time.
Also, be sure you're ready to make a long-term commitment to a pet. Cats and dogs can live as long as 20 years. Fish live shorter lives, as do smaller animals like hampsters and guinea pigs, but they are still a commitment of time, money and love for years to come.
