Hi I personally wouldn't leave a 7 week old pup on its own for 8 hour's, I have 3 dogs and wouldn't leave them 8 hours without arranging a son/friend/neighbour to pop in and out or a dog sitter, 7 weeks is way to early for a pup to leave its mum, she would only just be weaning, puppies are lovely but I would consider that you wouldn't leave a baby on its own without a minder.
After getting someone to pop in and out you could also get a baby monitor to look at on your mobile, have you had a dog before |
