Soon to be Corgi owner

I am about to make a down payment on a Corgi pup within the next few days, and since this place seems to be filled with owners with experiance, I have some questions I'd like to throw out there.

I currently live in an apartment, that's about 700 square feet. Is this enough room for a corgi? We also have two cats, and a total of two people (who are fairly small in frame). Granted, it will be given many oppritunities for walks and such.

I got Milly on December 20/07 (as a Christmas present for my daughter) and if I had to do it again I would always get a puppy in the winter. I live in Ontario and it was particularly cold out those days so all we did outside was potty. Milly really caught on quickly that she goes outside to potty, get a treat and back inside to play. For potty training I think it is the best time to get a puppy! Sam also raises some good points in addition I would like to add owners guilt. You will have to leave your puppy alone at times and all you will do when you are out is be thinking of puppy:) And it is true, your life for the next couple of decades will revolve around potty schedules (although it get better when they are older). I don't know how many times we leave a friends place because Milly will have to go potty by now:)
