Week-one notes
Set bathroom, meal and calm-waiting rules early.
Do not let friendliness replace boundary training.
Use short stable training sessions instead of overstimulating interaction.
What should renters confirm first?
Confirm landlord and building policy first, then evaluate space, noise tolerance and cleaning burden. Housing rules matter more than breed preference at the start.
Can a beginner own a high-energy dog?
Yes, but only if time is stable, training effort is realistic, and you can support regular exercise and social exposure long term. High-energy dogs are not a good fit for a casual after-work pet plan.
