dog crate 8 hours image

I am tired of people saying that it is cruel to leave your dog in a crate during an 8 hour work day. I am unemployed right now and I live in an apartment. I know that once I get a job I am going to have to lock up my 10 month old yorkie. Is there anyone out their who has positive responses about this?
Answer
Leaving your puppy in a crate for your work day, in my opinion, is probably better for him. There is a lot in a home for a puppy to get into, especially a little one like a Yorkie. Don't make the crate a bad thing for him, never punish him and put him in his crate you want the crate to be a safe place for him. Leave the door open on the crate so he can go in as he pleases, give him his favorite treats in the crate so he relates that its a good place. Don't feel guilty, if you think he is going to be bored, a little trick I did for my puppies and still do for my adult dogs. Buy a KONG (from any pet store) fill the bottom with some small treats or food put a a small amount of peanut butter on the top and freeze it over night, its a great way to keep a dog busy. make sure you have water available if you are going to give him peanut butter... it makes them pretty thirsty.

Can I leave my dog in a crate for 8 hours?

I'm finally moving out of my parents house and taking my 10 year old male Papillon with me. My fear and problem is that he is going to be in his cage/crate for 8 hours until I come home. At my parents house, he was only there from 8-2 because some one would be there to let him out. With me moving out, I don't know how he will handle it or what I should do. Does anyone have any advice or tips?
Answer
No dog of any age should be kept in a crate for more than 4 hours at any one time. To keep a dog in a crate of 8 hours is cruel.
Why does a 10 year old dog need to be crated? Surely at that age it won't chew up the house. A 10 year old dog will sleep for most of the day so leave him out of the crate.
If you can't allow your dog to be free in the house it would be best if you leave him with your parents. Even then, 6 hours is way too long to leave the dog in a crate.
