My husband and I have decided to leave our 10 week old in the kitchen if he has to be alone for more than a few hours. This is day #1. We've only had him for 5 days and potty training is going pretty good.
There was only one other day this week where he had to be home alone, so we crated him. I came home about 5 hours later, yes, this was too long. He had peed in his crate. We actually don't like the crate idea too much, unless he only has to go in for 2-3 hours or so. He's even been sleeping with us.
Anyway, I'm rambling. My QUESTION is: did we "set up" the kitchen correctly? I left water out for him in one area, toys & chew toys in another (actually by the baby gate that blocks him from the house) and a potty pad in another area. We put the potty pad on top of a black garbage bag-for extra protecion I guess. We also put some newspaper around it so that might help him go over there. (he used newspaper to potty in inside at his previous home) Abt 10 hrs. he'll be there
