My wife and I were living in an apartment when we got a small terrier.
Believe it or not, she did not bark, and furthermore we succeeded in
making an arrangement with the manager to use a small patch of ground
on condition I turn it over periodically.

We lasted about six months under this arrangement.  Our conclusion was
that it is impossible to perperly care for a dog (no matter how small)
when living in an apartment.  We wound up renting a small house with
fenced yard, and have never regretted it.
