The safest option is to keep him kenneled if you are not there to watch him. this prevents him from tearing up your things and protects him from eating something that can harm him. If this does not help, you can look into day care for him to burn off some energy and not be bored. You can look at getting stronger toys such as Kongs that allow you to place treats inside to keep them occupied and interested in the toys or water buffalo horns and elk antlers that are sold at pet stores. these are more durable than most bones and are enjoyable for dogs. If all of these fail, you can talk to your vet about medicine to help with anxiety to keep him calmer and more relaxed when alone
