9 weeks is pretty young to be left for so long. My puppy is 3 months old (15 weeks) and you're suppose to add an hour to their age (3 months = 4 hours okay alone) but my puppy is fine for longer.
With younger puppies you really should be there more often that's why I knew right now is the right time for me to have a puppy because I live 15 minutes away from work so I go home during lunch. My puppy is hardly ever alone for more than 4 hours and he eats regularly. You have to be very careful with younger puppies.
