the riot sweeping down my street with torches blazing, as my gaze shifted to the skyline of the city I saw that it was in flames, at that moment i smelt smoke and realized that my own house was on fire! I rushed out of my burning house, standing in the street watching it burn in horror until a straggler from the riots came up to me and started going on about how I had been released from my material possessions. I knocked him out with one punch then sunk to my knees crying softly, lost in what was apparently going to be a new world and trying to figure out just how I was going to handle it.
In the morning I was still just sitting there, staring glassy-eyed at the remains of my house and all that I had ever known, as the thoughts in my head wandered around like so many whisps of smoke I began to wonder just who I was going to be now that I was no longer defined by what I owned, the answer came that I could be anyone, most notably myself, with no fear, no judgement of me based on my possessions. This revelation cheered me and my eyes actually came alive again as I stood up and began walking toward the burned husk that was once a city to begin my new life and see what it held.

The suggestion of an obedience class is an excellent one. Read here https://tr.im/dupnI
It will help your dog learn to behave around other dogs, and help keep your training moving forward as you'll want to be prepared for the next class. Also, a good instructor can be a wonderful resource, someone to help you with any questions or concerns about your dog. Leash training can take a LOT of time and patience, depending upon the dog. I'm not sure what you mean by 'horrible on a leash' but my basic suggestion is that you take a lot of yummy treats with you on walks. When your dog behaves well on the leash (not pulling) praise her and give her treats. Change direction a lot so that she learns to pay attention to YOU and where you are going. It's also helpful to teach a "Watch Me" command such that whenever your dog looks at you you praise her and give her a treat. About chewing, yes a Kong is a great chew toy. Some dogs also like Nylabone brand bones. I suggest also teaching a "Leave It" command. You use this when she shows interest in chewing on something she shouldn't. Then immediately give her something she is allowed to chew, such as the Kong stuffed with somethig yummy. This same command will be helpful on walks when she wants to sniff or eat something she shouldn't. Again, when she does leave the item alone, be sure to give lots of praise. I would look into an obedience class right away. I think that you'll find that a good obedience class can help enormously! Good luck and enjoy your new dog.

The ice cream van making a get away from sleepless children, who chased the van down the street wailing frantically for him to stop
"Would you like strawberry or chocolate sauce on your ice cream, little boy?"
"Blood on mine, if you please.. mwha mwha mwah"
Arrrgh! Mr. Ice Cream Man yelled as he watched the children turn into vampires.
