If you are going to leave your dog alone for a long period of
time then don't be surprised with the behavior issues he might
develop. Being alone, he deals with two big problems. The first
one is the physic and emotional discomfort, because he sees he
is free and he doesn't know what he is allowed to do and what he
isn't. Sometimes stress is added because he is afraid of doing
something that can get him punished. The

second problem comes
out of the need of a dog to be permanently around people or
other dogs.
If it is a small dog, he should be familiarized to his
environment. If a little dog is to be left alone the entire day,
then make sure he has enough water and that a big part of the
room he is left into will be covered in papers. A small dog
needs to satisfy his physiological needs every three hours. Do

circumstances leave the dog locked in the doggy
house without given him access to water. You should let him stay
in a small room, for example the kitchen.
A good idea might be coming home in your lunch brake or hiring
someone to walk your dos. This way he gets a chance to meet
other people and dogs and help you prevent a home disaster.

introduce him to as many friends and neighbors as we can
until he turns 7-12 weeks old, because at this age the puppy
holds the capacity to understand some situations.
If you have an adult dog, that needs to be fed only once a day,
it is simpler. The dog will eat at night or in the evening when
you get home. You will walk him in the morning and when you get
back from work. But try not to be out of the house more

that 8
hours because he has a schedule, he knows exactly when he is
given food and when he will be walked. If you don't impose him a
rhythm, the dog will be stressed and the house a mess.
Never leave the dog alone when you are planning to go on a trip
or on a vacation. If possible take him with you or if not, hire
someone or ask some friends to take care of him.
It is important to make it up to your

dog. If you have to leave
him alone a lot during work days, try and spend more time with
him on weekends and holidays. Behavior issues can be easily
corrected if you just play more with the dog.
