How cold is too cold to leave a dog outside in the elements all day?

dog crate 10 hours image

Jumper12

I live in Las Vegas NV and the high temperature is 65 degrees and the low is about 47 degrees. I have a new job and I will need to leave my two dogs outside 10 hours while I am at work. Are these temperatures too cold? Or should I leave them in the house all day for 12 hours and let them out when I get home? They are big dogs and crate trained.

Answer
What kind of dogs are they to start with? A long haired dog like a shephard, husky etc would have absolutely no trouble with 47 degree temps. Even a short haired dog wouldn't have too much trouble if they had an enclosed area to stay out of the wind and had blankets etc.

How to get my dog to stop freaking out when someone leaves my house?

Heather

I have a seven almost eight month old Labrador. When, not only myself but, anyone leaves my house, he insists on jumping up on the recliner to watch them out the window. I can't crate my dog every time someone goes to leave my house. It's almost to the point where I have to hold him back every time someone leaves. He's a very strong dog and after 10 hours of working and constant moving, it's starting to take a toll on my muscles, having to do it every day. There are several people coming in an house of the house due to a personal care, but it's just when ANYONE leaves my house, he jumps up there and has to stare out to see where they are going. He doesn't care if anyone is sitting there or not.

Can someone please help!?!??

Answer
Id definetly check out this video, and even a few of his other videos.
His channel is all based on dog/puppy tricks, so after you teach calmness, you can teach him a few other cool things such as balancing a treat, wiping his paws, and lots of other stuff! Check out the video, it's great.
