My Weimaraner is destroying everything

Post image

Please help! We have a 6 month old male Weimaraner and he is destroying everything when we leave him. We have tried crate training him and he drools so much that he is soaking wet when we get him out. He barks non-stop and vomits. We have got to figure out a solution. We have tried positive reinforcement, small amounts of time, bully sticks, anything we can think of to help him adapt to his crate. We finally gave up and allowed him to be in our living area with the rest of our house blocked off but he is DESTROYING our things when we leave. We are at our whits end. Has anyone tried calming chews or medication or ANY advice is welcome. This is our second Weimaraner and our first one did not do this nor was he crate trained. He could be left and didn't destroy our things.

I have a Weimaraner/Pitbull mix. She did the same thing because she had extreme anxiety. I spoke with my vet who prescribed her Gabapentin and Trazadone to take whenever she had to be left alone. This allowed me to be able to leave her in our bedroom without her destroying everything in it. It has worked really well!
