My family and I recently moved from a house to an apartment, eversince we moved my dog's behavior have changed. When in the house we never had any problem leaving him home alone. Now every time I leave the apartment I come back to a mess. He chews on the front door frame and wall. He also has broken the mini blinds and he also spills his water and takes the bowl to my son's room.
Please help me, What should I do?

He may be suffering from anxiety at being at a new place. Also make sure he gets plenty of opportunities to go outside for fresh air.

Get a Pet Crate. Unless you're ready to REALLY start training him.

That way, he'll do little if any damage.
