Why is my dog chewing on everything, and how can I redirect this behavior?

Chewing is a natural behavior for dogs, especially puppies teething or dogs with excess energy. Provide a variety of chew toys to satisfy this urge. Keep personal items out of reach and use deterrent sprays on furniture if necessary. Ensure your dog gets plenty of physical and mental exercise to reduce boredom-related chewing. Consistent training and redirection to appropriate toys can help manage this behavior.
