Question:
How long should I leave my dog in his kennel?

Answer:
The kennel is most effective when used only for periods of time that are reasonable for your dog's age and experience. Your dog should never be left in his kennel for longer than he can control his bladder and bowels. The following are some general kennel duration guidelines:

8-10 weeks Approximately 30-60 minutes
11-14 weeks Approximately 1-3 hours
15-16 Weeks Approximately 3-4 hours
17 + weeks Appr 4 + (6 hours maximum)
