Is he teething? - He's 3 so not teething. This is something he just started within this summer.

What kind of dog is it? - German Drahthaar

can you kennel him when you're not around to properly train him not to do it? - He is in a run during the day when we're not around. He's either doing it in the morning when we let him out, or at night after we get home. Never caught him doing it. Hate to leave him in that run everytime we're not in the yard. May have to though.

can you make a makeshift run for him and fence him in with the trees you've already deemed sacrificed? - With the exception of the tree rows, which is where his run is (down the middle of a row) there are quite a few trees which are placed sporadically making this pretty tough.

maybe switch to high fiber dog food? - He's eating Eukanuba high performance - not sure if this is high fiber or not.

We used to NEVER use the dog run. Just let him free roam the big yard until he started eating the trees. Now he's in the run during the day.
