Rawhide isn't really good for dogs. They can't digest it and it petrifies (gets extremely hard) inside their stomachs. I don't suggest it. I had a dog that had major organ damage done by a piece of rawhide he ingested.
If you want your dog to stop chewing on things around the house, there's a spray you can buy at your local pet store called Sour Apples or something like that. It tastes horrible and they won't want to chew something that isn't appetizing.
Good luck.

Offer him some rawhides. HOWEVER, one of my dogs only likes certain flavors of rawhides so I'd suggest getting a variety bag (they sell them at Petsmart).
Also, if the chewing is a nuisance, I've learned to increase your puppy's exercise. I'm a fan of the "Dog Whisperer" and have learned if you take your doggie out for longer walks or out more frequently, they will be less likely to chew on stuff. It worked for my Min Pin!

Hmm, is he crate trained? He should be taught to be in a crate when you are not home so he won't choke on something he should not be chewing on. Or is he chained up outside? It may be he is bored. How old is he? If under 2 he may still be teething some. Best things I have found are smoked cow hooves. They are pretty cheap and last a long time!

A bullet-
no seriously, if he is young-give him something to chew and restric access to things you do not want destroyed. Dogs chew til they are 18-30 months old.

Watch the Dog Whisperer. Do not yell at the dog beat up and yell at the thing they are chewing sounds dumb but works.

My pit bull loves the rawhide chew toys! Not only do they have a blast, but it keeps their teeth free from plaque.

I have a 60 lb German Shepard and he is also a major chewer! They chew a lot when they are bored so make sure he/she gets LOTS of exercise at least an hour a day! But this is my Buds FAVORITE chew snack and it is great to cure their bordness when you can't be around! But exercise is always number one!!

pits are power chewers. buy some beef sticks(dried bull penis) but not rawhide chews. Kong toys are my dogs favorite. he may be just bored, give him plenty of exercise. 40 minutes+ of walking a day

they are very mouth orintated and you need to find oy and treats he likes ex: a kong filled with peanutbutter or cheese in a tube, or rawhide, or boiled bones from a meat market, there are balls and cubes you fill with kibble or treats that he would roll around to get out the food....you may have to try a few to find his fav. and maybe have a couple to tade off so he dose not get bored of one or the other...toys,treats,and things to do.....good luck!!=)
