Chewing usually means too much energy or bored (not that I'm an expert). Does he have a good place to run? I take mine to the off leash areas, but if I don't do it at least once a day, something will be chewed.
Sometimes I put a sacrificial chew thing down as well. A piece of carboard that you won't miss.
Maybe an obedience class would help. When punishing you have to be consistent.

From some of the stuff I have read (books, online, etc.) it says that his immune system isn't fully developed, atleast until about 5 months. We only really take him out on the front lawn to do his buisness and play a bit. We play a lot inside, he has a lot of chew toys, but it usually results in chewed toes or fingers, which we are trying to stop.
As soon as we think he is 'healthy', we have no problem taking him to the local off leash area.
How young is too young for obedience classes? Anyone know a good one, and cost?
