I live in an apartment, but a lot of the people here have small, medium, and large dogs. I do not have any pets here, but I do have plenty of dogs toys, dog bowls, dog treats, and all that fun stuff because I take care of my dog who lives at my parents house on a regular basis. There is a huge grass area right outside our complex for dogs to go do their business real quick. Inside, dogs can go wherever they want, we don't have expensive furniture here so dogs are free to sit on the furniture unless you are training them not to do that. ALSO... in case of the worst case scenario.. there is a veterinarian less than a minute drive away. (Compass Veterinary Clinic) It's right across the road from us.
