Answer 1

Those models are valid in Realm, but we do not enforce any transitive constraints. If you think of Realm as just an object graph, you should get the idea on what rules you need to enforce yourself.

So if if a Person is only allowed to have Toys that are held by Dogs owned by the Person, you will have to enforce that yourself.
