Looking for dog behaviourist recommendations?

[Septemberintherain]

Ideally in Essex or Suffolk but if any do video calls then happy to work with someone outside of my area?
Its for our rescue. We adopted him 5 weeks ago. He’s lovely and very friendly but we have some issues with him urinating a lot in the house, excessive barking and chewing absolutely everything in the house.
We know these are all signs of anxiety. He is 2 and was crated for 12 hours a day from the age of 7 week until about 12 months old. He was never walked or even taken out of the original owners flat! He and been taken to the rescue, then rehomed and returned 3 months late (the adopters couldn’t handle his anxiety and destructive behaviour), returned to the rescue and then adopted by us. No wonder he’s anxious poor mite.
Hopefully, over time he will realise this is his forever home and we won’t let him down but to help his anxiety and my bank balance (I’m going though endless chew toys, he’s torn up 2 living room throws, several pillows and my teen dd’s Nike Airforces!), I need to speak with a behaviourist to see what we can do to help him.
Any advice greatly appreciated.

A good quality rescue should be offering a behaviourist referral as part of their post adoption package

If they're not, however, go for someone APBC or CCAB qualified
apbc.org.uk/find-an-apbc-member/
asab.org/ccab-register

The above will require a vet referral; not requiring a vet referral is a red flag because so many behaviour issues have a medical cause at their heart.

For what it's worth, chewing is a self soothing behaviour; try to always have some items that can be chewed on hand; if soft toys are a particular favourite then check out the children's toy section at your local charity shop (just remove any hard eyes or noses; they're 50p a go at my local one)

Also you have only had him for 5 weeks, the rule of 3 for rescues/adopted dogs. 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to learn your routine, 3 months to start feeling at home and feel like they belong. I'd get some cow hooves, or yaks antlers they can he chewed for ages. When we have fosters in, they all love the hooves and they are cheap as well.
