How many years was your basset crated?

How many years was your basset crated before total house freedom or are they still crated?

Our boy will be 2 in May. We work on leaving him out and he does well and then he backslides. Today’s backslide was pulling up some of our LVP flooring when we were only gone an hour for our usual Sunday grocery trip (thankfully no pieces missing!!). He does just fine out of crate all night long, sleeping where he pleases, full reign of the house, and he has a Newfie brother to hang with.

I don’t have a good breed reference for this breed and how long until we can put the crate away when we’re gone. Our Newfoundland was out of crate full time by a year and half. Our Great Dane was closer to the 2 year mark.
