There are quilted pad beds, your dog might not feel the need to chew that up, works with my dogs. You can also just fold up a large blanket several times. As to the "discipline and hit" advice, people like that shouldn't be anywhere near dogs. Clarity, however, makes a good point, your dog probably needs more exercise and is doing this excessive de-stuffing out of boredom, If you really want to keep your dog from pulling stuffing out of toys and beds, you can always use a plain water spray, but honestly, why not just avoid the problem by using hard Kong toys or quilts instead of foam beds.

Their flat but still give comfort to the dog and they can't be torn apart as easy like the other fluffy ones. Our two dogs haven't torn it apart yet and it's been over a year now, so I would give one of these styles a try. Good Luck!!!

We stop buying beds and just gave them 2 blankets and they don't rip that up. In fact any where we put the blankets they lay on them. Maybe they don't like the stuff inside the bed.
