how much time should puppy spend in crate
You must get your puppy on a crate training schedule, a schedule for spending periodic time in his crate but not being left for too long! Puppies can be left in a crate up to however old they are in months plus one hour. So if your puppy is 8 weeks old (2months) plus one hour=3 hours. You wouldnât want to leave an 8-week old puppy over 3 hours in a crate and I would strive for something less if at all possible. The more time you spend with your puppy the more time you bond and your puppy learns appropriate manners.
