Puppies of different ages have varied time limits in which they can and should be left alone. Under 10 weeks: 1 hour. 10-12 weeks: 2 hours. How old your dog is generally correlates with the amount of time (in hours) that they can be alone. Dogs between 10 to 12 weeks old can usually hold it for around two hours. Once your dog reaches 3 months old, they can usually hold it for an hour for each month they’ve been alive. However, even adult dogs shouldn’t be home alone for much longer than six to eight hours without a chance for a bathroom break.
