Stop Whining and Crying Please

Hello

I have rescued a jack russel/border collie pup who is four months old! He was thrown out a car window.

He is excellent in every way except......whining all the time. My by law officer has stopped by and my neighbours are complaining.

So here is what I was told....shut him up or get rid of him.

So how do I shut him up?

Here is what I have tried

squirt bottle and firm voice saying NO!
The command QUIET
spray bark collar
shock bark collar
{all the bark collar did was cause him to bite us every time we touched his collar but he still howls and whines}

He whines whenever something is not his way

we walk to slow for him, we go in a direction he does not want to go, we place a baby gate up to prevent him from going in my bedroom because he has taken a liking to peeing on my bed....he howls at the baby gate

We play ball with him, walk him and tire him out but he still cries to much.

I thought a tired dog was a good dog but it is not working for this boy. His vocalness is creating an issue.
