[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, our puppy. A bag of potato chips, a couple of cords, magnet of a picture, 3 pairs of shoes, socks, several stuffed animals and many more I can't think of.  He just destroys them, doesn't ingest that we know of. He also chewed up the corners of a wooden crate. We now close up the doors of rooms so that he is never unsupervised except in rooms where there is nothing he can reach. He seems to be getting better as he gets older.

He's good with not stealing food but someone (that would be me) left them unattended on the sofa for approximately 3 minutes.

[b]We do our best but in our case it means he isn't getting enough exercise. [/b]We have work/school so we resorted to daycare a few days of week. He's calmer the next day. [/quote]

This.  A trainer once told us that 80% of dog behavioral problems is due to lack of exercise.  We made sure to exercise our dog a TON in the early years, and haven't had any chewing problems.[/quote]

+1  A good dog is a tired dog.

I opened this expecting to laugh a commiserate a bit.  We have a Rottweiler puppy (now 14 months old). They are notorious chewers with very strong jaws--can chew/eat anything.  Your list OP, is nuts.  We've gone through two remote controls and a few plates of food we (my kids) left on the coffee table.  A sock here or there.  The dog is exercised a lot, and also was contained prior to learning to leave things alone that don't belong to her.

Maybe a wire crate would work for yours?  And more exercise?  That's a scary long list of things the dog ate.  GL[/quote]
