For the safety of your pet, please consult your veterinarian with any questions you may have as they are the most qualified to give advice. How long can you safely leave your dog outside? There are a lot of factors that go into answering this question. Is it a puppy? Is it an adult dog that already knows his surroundings or his boundaries? The answer to this question also depends on the weather and the elements. Will the dog have access to come into the house or maybe a dog house, garage, or under the porch? Is your dog a digger, a climber, a chewer? All of this factors in on how long you should leave your dog out. Is your dog going to be a house dog or an outside dog? In some cities there is a law against constantly barking dogs and if your neighbor calls the police on you for your dog's barking you WILL get fined and possibly have your dog impounded. They do that here in TN so you should check into your city's dog laws.
Consider potential hazards in your own backyard. Before you leave your dog outside, consider the hazards of the environment in which you are leaving your pet. If you live in a rural area theres always a possibility of raccoons (they carry rabies), also coyotes. Your dog can bring fleas & ticks into the house if your yard isn't treated. Beware of mosquitos. Dogs can contract heart worms from the bite of a mosquito, and your dog should be on heart worm preventative medication every month. The makers that make the drug which is actually arsenic (poison) quit making that drug so if your dog contracts heart worms there is no treatment for them now. Your dog could also pick up intestinal parasites (worms) and some worms can be passed to your children! If they happen to lick a blade of grass that has some eggs on it, well there ya go, your dog's got worms. I personally would not leave any dog outside unsupervised. Your dog could get stolen & yes that does happen. It happens everyday.
