Unhappy **Update at bottom* Broke out of plastic kennel

I feel horrible even posting this but i really feel like im at the end of my rope. My puppy has continued with the behaviour including defecating and peeing all over our sofa this morning. Im at work today and hubby is home sick and the dog has been flipping out ever since i left. He has major seperation/confinement anxiety. The crate is absolutely out of the question as he breaks out of it. My husband tied him to the radiator in the kitchen this morning while cleaned up the mess and he chewed through the leash . He also procedeed to chew our kitchen table ,the blinds. knock everything off the counters and microwave stands and also broke through the gate at the kitchen door. What else are we supposed to do ??? I understand that i need to get him into obdience classes but in the interim he is going to destroy the house and probably injure himself.

Starting tomorrow nobody will be in the house during the day and im nervous about the damage hes going to cause. This dog is like houdini , he always manages to break free.

We tried a metal leash to and he managed to break the tether off.

The next thing im thinking is getting him medication for when we leave to take the edge off of his panic. Other than that i feel like ive run out of suggestions
