He's already trained to sleep though the night without going potty, so this should be the easiest time for him to be out of the crate for an extended period of time without having an accident.

This training can usually be started with calm, non-destructive dogs when they're around 6 months of age.

Active or destructive dogs should be at least a year old before starting this training. Your dog has to have 2 solid months of sleeping through the night in his crate peacefully before you consider having him sleep outside the crate.
