Dog chewing bed

My dog has a habit of chewing and destroying his bed while in the kennel. Is there a way to stop this?

Easiest response, and possibly the shallowest one, would be to say, don't put a bed in the kennel...Yes, thank you Capt Obvious.
Honestly it sounds like there is some anxiety issues while he's in the kennel. My chocolate lab would never crate/kennel train...so we quit trying. She would drool uncontrollably. It was disgusting.
All I can say is good luck.

mine used to do the same thing. i believe he was getting hot and just wanted to be on the plastic because he would start by almost digging a hole right in the middle of the bed then pull out all of the stuffing. now i just leave a pillow and a towel that he can move around the kennel if he wants and he hasn't chewed up either

I had worked early on with a K9 officer with our GSP - he also boarded and worked with her while we went on vacation - he told me early on that nothing should be in her kennel, especially anything with stuffing (toys, bed, etc.)as it could kill your dug if the ingest to much stuffing. As she got a older we introduced blankets and watched to make sure she wouldn't chew those, now we leave a flannel blanket in her kennel but nothing stuffed.

Mine did the same thing so I took the bed out and put in an old towel. Now he moves the towel to where he wants it and lays down.

The only thing a dog needs in his kennel is a chew toy that the dog really likes.
