I
trained mine and I also live in an apartment. You really do need a cage
for this and enough time on your plate to put Into his training.
He's a little too old to be potting inside still, if it seems too excessive for you he may have a bladder infection, which is common in puppies.
Mine had worms, after treating him he had fewer accidents, and
what accidents he did have he was smart enough to do it on the tile or
in his cage, not on the carpet.
You already trained a dog before so I assume you know how to do it, it's no different.

Just be very persistent, watch him at all times, don't
keep his water dish full he can't hold his bladder very well yet.
Scheduled eating and drinking times only.
And when he does finally potty
outside reward him graciously.

Any
newly re-homed or adopted puppy may be peeing a lot if STRESSED. You
make sure he does NOT have a UTI (first) - by going to your vet and
having his urine checked.
Next, you use a crate to help prevent accidents & to re-enforce housebreaking (in a NEW location) provided he ever WAS housebroken & crate trained in his prior home. (If not, you need to take a few days to a week off, to mange this.)
He should be able to hold his pee (while crated) for the amount of hours, he is months OLD - so 4 months equals 4 HOURS. So you ought to be able to come home at lunch or have a friend, family member, or dog walker come & let him out to "potty" at lunch time, once he is comfortable with the crate.

I suggest you also feed him IN the crate,
so he will like it better. Have extra non-slip bath mats handy, in case
there IS a crate accident. Oldies can be dropped in or near the
washing machine, if you or the dog walker are in a hurry, at lunch time.
Then, he should be GOOD for another 4 hours, although I suggest a noon meal, OR a stuffed Kong toy or food puzzle toy be given, after as much play & exercise as you can manage to provide.

Dachsie:
You
do the same thing that every other apartment living dog owner does.
You put the pup on leash and you take it on frequently.
Do you think that pups come trained? That is your job. If your to lazy, then place this dog.
Living in an apartment has absolutely NOTHING to do with training and housebreaking. If your to lazy, then your to lazy.

I lived in an apartment with dogs for many years. The key is
consistency. You can't leave the pup too long without a walk and you
must get the pup on a schedule.
