A house-broken adult dog can be left alone for hours but a puppy or young dog, although it can also be left alone for hours, should be contained in an area where it cannot do damage. If a dog is to be left alone outdoors, it should have adequate shelter from the elements provided for it. An adequate supply of water should be available whether inside or outdoors.
