We knew she would chew, and understandably, she is a puppy. She is chewing everything (sandals, sneakers, paper, pillows, blankets, wires, controllers, etc.) We did get her chew toys that the vet recommended, but she chews on everything.

We are also trying to clean up all the potentially dangerous things from her reach (wires, plastic,...), but I was wondering when she would outgrow this habit.
