When do you think I can sleep through the night & just let my pup out in the morning?

Full Question:
Hi,

Absolutely love your work! Thank you so much! I have a new Siberian huskie mix that is 10 weeks old & we crate him every night. I have been getting up after about 4 hours to let him out to pee & poop outside in our back yard, but I would much prefer to sleep through the night. I'm a diabetic with a bad cold, & this has exhausted me. My question is, when do you think I can sleep through the night & just let him out in the morning? Thanx!

This varies so much from dog to dog, I’m not sure there is an accurate answer I can give. I have owned pups that sleep through the night from 12 weeks old and others who need to get up in the night for a year or more. They are all individuals, so there really isn’t a set age for when they no longer need a break halfway through the night.
