The first thing that I’d be looking at is what you are feeding him. Often times, lower quality dog foods contain ingredients such as corn and things that many dogs have allergies to. I’d suggest feeding a food such as Innova, Solid Gold, etc.

When it comes to dog beds, really if you have a destructive dog, anything is going to get chewed up. A dog who likes to chew things is going to find a way to do that with really anything. We have a Doberman who is similar when it comes to ripping out bedding, and chewing up towels, etc. We just don’t allow those things to be around him when he is unsupervised to prevent this from happening. And when we are around, if he does try to pick up the bed or towels, a firm ‘no’ stops him. By keeping those things around him when you can’t discipline him, you are inadvertently telling him it’s okay to do what he’s doing.

I’d check his food first, and if you are already feeding a high quality diet and you have eliminated the things that you think he’d be allergic to, an allergy test may be the next step. Best of luck.
