@kotaspen: In my opinion: There isn’t one right number because every dog is different. It depends on their age, health, energy level, behavioral needs, and how much mental and physical fulfillment they get throughout the week. A young, high-energy dog that isn’t getting enough stimulation will struggle even after a few hours, while an older, calm dog might nap peacefully most of the day. That’s why I always tell people: don’t just pick a dog because they’re cute or a certain breed you like. Pick a dog that actually fits your lifestyle. If you work long hours, travel a lot, or have a busy schedule, that’s okay but choose a dog whose needs align with that reality. I love that I can trust no longer how long I have to be away from my dogs, they are safe in their @impactdogcrates 🤍 #dogmom #dogowner #rescuedog #kotaspen #dogtrainingtips

4-6 hours. In Sweden it's illegal to leave your dog alone more than 6h without it being walked.

8 hours. a walk before work and a long walk after work. when people complain about it, i always say rather 8 hours on my couch with a blanket, than on a concrete floor in a shelter and not being able to sleep.

You guys act like dogs don't need 14-16 hours of sleep. People have to work. They will be okay for 8 or 9 hours if it's necessary I promise. Making people feel bad for crating thwir dog is wild.

Yall crazyyyyyyy. I’m about to get shit on so hard. My dogs get left for 9 hours during the week due to us working but if I absolutely have to, they can go 12 hours. I have a camera in their room and they literally sleep the whole entire time.

The amount of people saying 8 hours + is crazy!! 6 absolute maximum but only in emergencies. I personally only leave my dog for four hours at a time without a bathroom break or walk

here in Finland, at least,its perfectly normal for dogs to stay home up to 9hours / a normal work day +commute,as long as the dog has had their walk and food before and plenty of exercise and food after work 👏🤎 i check the camera multiple times a day and he's always just sleeping in various positions 🤌😊

Comfortable with 4 (which we don’t do often anyway). Max 6/7 - but this would be extremely rare and in unforeseen circumstances.

If you leave your dogs alone for 10-12 hours and then sleep 8 hours I mean what kind of attention does the dog get? Seems really sad. At least take them to daycare or hire a walker.

How do expect your dog to hold its pee for 8 hours? Can you? I think 5 hours should be max
