Go to PetsMart and get some icky tasting spray to put on the things he likes to chew. Believe me, he will stop! Or you can always spray a little water on his face every time he goes for a chew. His own chew toys would also be effective.

That's a problem....you have three choices, from what I can see.
1) Muzzle him: Buy one of those muzzles that you keep over the dogs mouth, that people often use to keep their dogs from barking at night of biting other people.
2) Keep him secluded, locked up in a room or in a cage, or chained outside.
3) I think the best idea, though, would be to take classes for dogs where they can learn obedience. It may be expensive, but this way, you can let him roam the whole house freely without worry. If that's too expensive, you could try one of several self-help dog training books that you should be able to find at a local Borders or Petsmart.

Is he a puppy? If so, this is to be expected; they teeth just like infants. There is some spray you can buy from most pet stores called bitter apple spray. You spray it where you don't want them to chew. It takes horrible but is harmless. Buy him some chewy toys also. My puppy also likes to chew on carrot sticks and broccoli (raw) which my vet recommends over any chew toys. But we have some chew toys anyway.

Get him several big raw hide chews or bones ...and spray all the things that he has already tried or things that he might try again with bitter apple spray from any local pet store. Good luck-just have patience with him-they won't chew forever!

If he's a puppy, this is normal. All you can do is get him plenty of chew toys, rawhides, nylabones, etc. and take him out for plenty of exercise so he isn't getting bored. He will outgrow it soon... and you can also put a bad-tasting spray (available at PetSmart) on household things like chair and table legs, even shoes. Good luck.

Buy him safe chew toys, raw hides, or marrow bones to divert his chewing energy. Exercising him would help too. 30 minutes of vigorous exercise per day (check with your vet before you do so) would help keep his energy in check. A tired dog is a good dog.
Please don't hit your dog.

a rolled up news paper works well with a hard voice to tell pup no,keep doing this and he/she will get the point. but you haft to keep this up every day,and find you a chew toy for you dog.
that might replace the chewing on everything else

if he doesn't like water then spray it on him every time he does it.if he does like water then that won't work. make a sound that kinda sounds like your telling someone to be quite,"shhhhhh!" but add a p at the end, say it fast, and firm.that's to get his attention. then right after that say no in your regular voice but firm, don't sound frustrated or mad because that feeling can go to him.
say "shhp" then no.
get him lots of chew toys too.

there are several other questions you need to answer. What kind of dog? and how old? those are very important in knowing why your dog is chewing. tell me those and I will give you an answer.
