He always makes it without messing up in his crate, but I agree with you that the amount of time stretches the boundaries of what is humane. I'm an hour drive round trip when working in her town so I can't do it. She could do it on her breaks but I'm guessing she won't be receptive.
I do understand that Yorkies like a ton of attention, but that is the least of my worries...
