It's on the long side, but unfortunately, most people that have to work all day end up with not much of a choice.

The faster they can do a 'boot camp' and get the puppy somewhat compliant, they can move to a pen with a pad in it, and then 8 hours shouldn't be bad at all.

Thankfully, we were able to move ours to a closed in pen pretty quickly so the extended crate time was minimized.
