But I used to leave my dogs alone inside for 9 hours on a
regular basis.


As most working people have to do.

I'd never do that with a puppy, or Rudy (his bladder can't take that on
a regular basis, which is one reason he stayed here), but most adult
dogs? Lucy doesn't even want to go out and pee after 9 hours.

Of course, most dogs are also inside (albeit not alone) for at least 8
hours overnight. Even 15 week old Marcie does that just fine.
