Hey Neighbor!  Welcome to YT! I am in Richmond.  I think 4 hours in a crate can be a little long for such a young pup. They have very small bladders. You also need to be careful that she doesn't try to hold it too long because she could get a UTI (urinary tract infection). You may want to set up an area with a larger space for her to hang out in when you are at work. In the kitchen is great as long as she is safe. Or, you can get an xpen or superyard xt (which is what I have) and use pee pads for her to use while you aren't there. Don't hesitate to ask ???, we are all willing to help new owners as much as we can. Look me up anytime as well. Good Luck. sounds like you are doing a great job training her so far! ~Kathy
