In his defence he is only a puppy but he will chew everything that he can get his teeth on. We virtually have no backyard left! HELP! My partner is going nuts over it!

I assume you already have chew toys for him...Get him more! Make it so he has more chew toys than yard, or stones..or plants..The only thing that's really going to help is to distract him from the things you don't want him to chew. Try multiple Kong toys with treats or peanut butter inside them..Or if he likes to drag stuff around..get him a couple old tires he can wrestle. My Lab/Hound mix used to be just like your puppy..we just did our absolute best to keep him busy 24/7. Also, make sure he's getting enough exercise..Labs need a large amount of play and walking..and running..Basically it's like having a child that gets into everything..you have to provide entertainment for him until he grows up..which might take 4-5 yrs..Be patient.. and good luck!

Sorry to say but "Good Luck" finding some thing.
My lab is 6yrs old and still chews, will lay in the drive for hours chewing on rocks. the best thing I've found is the "gernade" it's shaped like one, it's a safe kind of plastic she will chew on it for about 3 weeks before it's to small to be safe. Any kind of "kong "toys seem to last a while to, but they may not take to them a first.

Does he have plenty of chew toys? In addition to teething, he may be just bored. Try getting him some heavy duty chew toys and something that will stimulate him like some of those toys that you can hide treats in. This way he will chew what he is supposed to (the urge to chew is natural!) and won't tear up your yard so much.

My Lab had the same habits, and he wasn't a puppy. Labs just have that tendency. I got him a toy called a "Cong", they are virtually indistructable, hard rubber, and he loved it. You can get them at most pet stores. They come in different sizes, once he gets it, he'll never put it down,--- at least mine didn't. Good Luck!
