One of the emotions dogs can feel is loneliness. Dogs are pack animals and social creatures, and for this reason, they don’t like spending too much time alone. When we talk about their loneliness, it is a long term issue and not something that occurs after a few hours. Taking them on walks, spending quality time with them or if they have another dog in the household can prevent them from feeling lonely. Unless they have separation anxiety, they will generally be ok for about four hours at a time, depending on their age and needs.
