What's a gym?
lol just kidding!
I think you will have to first see what HIS potty schedule is like. Esp. when they are puppies they are just like babies. When you gotta go...you gotta go. So give him a few weeks and you will know what his routine is like. Since he won't be going out for walks until his vacc. shots are all done, potty pad training him is a must. You can start using commands(like go potty/wee wee) and when he goes praise him. My Ahi can usually go on command now. I use it before we go in a car ride to ensure no accidents. She goes both indoor and out.
After a while i'm sure you could just take him out first thing in the morning just to go potty. Do your normal routine. Come back for lunch and walk him and potty break. Make sure you get a x-pen type of setup when you are not home.
Good luck!
