What are the best dog breeds for adopting if I will be at work all day?

I am seriously considering adopting a dog but I am having reservations because I will have to leave him/her at home for 8-9 hours a day during the week and I live in an apartment in NYC. Are there any breeds that are best for this situation or any ideas? If its not good for the dog, I won’t adopt.

I need help leash training my dog?

We adopted a small dog that looks like a Chihuahua. He is very shy and we think his previous owners abused him. Any ways he does absolutely nothing just sits all day long. So when it comes time to go out side and walk him, again he does nothing. I don’t want to drag him I just want him to be able to use the restroom outside and not inside. ( I live in an apartment) He wont use the puppy pads its so useless all he seems to know is to go inside the house and I need to reverse that.
