Just make sure you give them attention, open space to roam, food, treats, and maybe a few play toys.

However you'll often find weight and breed restrictions in place with dogs so make sure you're knowledgeable of all the rules before moving your pooch in. If your dog is used to living in a house with a front and back yard then keeping them happy in your apartment is going to require a slight change in some areas, but it won't require too much effort to keep your dog satisfied. When you're gone consider leaving out a bin of toys for them to play with and leaving as many doors open in your apartment so they have plenty of space to roam. It's also of the utmost importance that you keep your dog well exercised when living in an apartment. The more exercise they get the less room they have for boredom and unhappiness. As always, make sure you give them plenty of love and affection.
