We are both old and sleep all the time..LOL. He can complaine but has to learn he goes outside. Jack Russels are high spirited dogs on the go all the time, she/he needs time to adjust....You can try coaxing him to go out with a small piece of his favorite snack. Thats how I got my lab to lay down for nail clipping...clip 2 nails get a small piece of hot dog...it took a while but she learned before her blindness when I picked up the nail clippers and a hot dog cut up was on the counter, she's wag her tail and lay down waiting for me....It takes a different routine now with her blindness.....

Sometimes she puts on her brakes when she doesn't want to go outside, she's strong as an ox if she doesn't want to move, YOu are going to need lots of patience, My dogs biggest thing to overcome was going down the 2 steps to go outside, in the beginning it took sometimes up to 5 minutes for her to make those 2 steps...finally she would put her paw down and move it slightly until her nails were not on the step and she slowly gained confidence....it takes a while, patience, patiences and don't rush her/him, but they have to learn that growling isn't going to let her get her way......don't know if this helps or not, but she does great for a blind, deaf dog....
