Pups will chew. So will bored dogs. Exercise them daily and get them out of the dog run as much as possible. My dog has the entire backyard and she still gets bored sometimes. Also, make sure they have chew toys like a nylabone. I give my dog a rawhide bone when we'll be gone for a while, just to keep her busy and to give her something to look forward to while she's alone. You can also buy toys that have hollowed out areas that you can fill with peanut butter. They'll be occupied for hours trying to get every last lick out.
