His environment is everything, so you gotta kinda doggy proof your house somewhat. Consider dogs on the same caliber of destruction as a small child and proof the house with that mindset. Easy!
Make fun chew toys always easily accessible. And keep fresh water out frequently – it’s easy to work up a deadly thirst when you’re a dog! Training your dog is all about technique and using your head to think through problem behavior.
Keep your treasured belongings way out of reach of the rascal. Any item that you need intact could be: socks and shoes, stuffed animals and other kids toys, hats, magazines, TOILET PAPER ROLLS, and such. And make sure to tuck away any electrical wires so these don’t get ruined and your doggy doesn’t get hurt.
And please don’t just leave him to his own devices in your house while you are out for long periods. You are just asking for it unless you doggy proof it and maybe section off a sufficiently large ’safe’ area.

As hinted at above, dog proof the house and have special areas sectioned off like the kitchen if it is roomy enough. Please leave him a cushion to lie on as lying on the floor is cold for us, and so, it’s cold for our dogs too.
