Bird Questions ( budgie, canary, parakeet)

I have been looking at birds for a while now and as my birthday is coming up I thought that it would be a good idea to start begging the parents. I have a high chest of draws which I would keep the cage on as I know they like to be high, also I have a small dog ( jack russel crossed with staffy ) and I wasnt sure if this would be a problem, she doesnt spend any time in my room but knowing the bird is in there it might attract her, but keeping the door shut and being so high up I thought this may be ok. Another problem is which one to get, at first I wanted a yellow canary as I heard they sing when trained and I like to sing in the morning getting ready and listen to a lot of music so I thought this would be nice but then with them getting lonely I wondered about getting another bird to go with it, a green budgie.. but how would I do this buy them both at the same time so they bond or one after another? also would a canary and a budgie be okay in the same cage ? also, altho this sounds stupid I was thinking maybe a male budgie and a female canary, I dont want them to breed so is it possible they can as I dont no much about there breeding and wether its possible for a budgie to breed with a canary?.. thanks a lot,, any tips are wanted also :) x
