He will be home alone for 7hrs mon-fr.DO i leave him in his crate or in the playpen?
I feel so bad he has to be alone while im at work.
how long did it take some of you to ccrate train your dog |
7 hours for a puppy is too long for him to be in his crate..they figure one hour for every month(5 mos. 5 hours)..maybe you should invest in a xpen..they don't like to soil where they sleep, but, being that young he will have too..with an xpen, you can put a pee pad in there, plus his bed, food, water and toys
