My dog chews bedroom items at night. Any non-crate solutions?

Question

I’m at a loss for what else to offer my dog. Because he is in his crate while I’m at work, I keep him out whenever I am home. Including when we go to bed. When we go to bed, I keep him in my bedroom. Lately he has been chewing on so many things that I have on low shelves in my bedroom but like hide away. I keep toys in the bedroom and chews, but he seems to search for things to destroy them. Are there more alternatives than keeping him in his crate at night too? I’ve tried the bitree spray too. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Male | neutered | 20 lbs

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Bad Sam! Can you leash him to the foot of your bed so he can't wander off to other things? If that doesn't work or isn't possible I think it is fine and not cruel to crate him at night. He should be sleeping anyway and it will also keep HIM and your stuff safe. Good luck!
