Thank you for submitting your question regarding Zoey. It is a normal behavior for a dog to chew especially a large breed one. It is just generally an undesirable one. Dogs can be destructive in the home with their chewing. It can be harmful to the dog as well if she ingests an object she chews on. This can become a major abdominal surgery to remove the foreign object. Do your best to provide indestructible toys to satisfying her urge to chew. Keep things picked up around the home to prevent her chewing things she shouldn't. I hope this information helps you!
