It really is not senisble to even consider leaving your girl & the pups alone from 7 - 4 and outside on a patio.

When my girl had her pups; she was never left from 2 weeks prior to whelping and the whole time the pups where here (8 weeks). I only let the pups out in the garden when they were 4 weeks old and this was in July when it was warm; then it was always supervised.

I strongly recommend you maybe rethink a little.

Good luck & I'm sure there will be others around to offer some advice.

Didnt even see that bit I bought a large metal playpen. called discovery panels from Croft, I was able to put this up in our conservatory(it is pretty large room admittingly) but I found this wonderful, for containing mum and pups safely if I had to pop out to the shops etc, and the other dogs could not get over it to interfer(this was when the pups were a few weeks old and mum was happy to have other dogs around) I got a 4ft one for safetly measures, I certainly wouldnt have my pups outside thats for sure, and my breed is an arctic breed, even with heat source, ther are drafts, and always the possibility of theft.
