Having a Basset Hound in a 57 squared meters flat as a first time dog owner

I never had a dog and can’t say that I ever wanted one until I met a Basset Hound. Ever since then I’m constantly thinking of getting one.

While doing the research, I observed that they are not recommend for first time dog owners because they can be stubborn. I have a 57 squared meters flat and don’t know if that might be enough for the dog.

I work from home this I’ll be with the dog the majority of the time, but the only problems is that during the weekends I occasionally go hiking and of course there’s no way a Basset could join me. Thus, I was thinking to have him used to my parents while he grows up and leave the dog with them while I’m away.

Do you think that I should get a Basset given all these conditions? I’m asking because I don’t want to make his or her life uncomfortable.
