Puppy Service Announcement: Puppies go through a phase of being very destructive - depending on the puppy they'll chew up your favorite shoes, furniture, anything not moving, and potentially pee on those things as well. It is a phase
So don't freak out when it goes on for a year. They give it up around then. And there's no indicator they've given it up other than you notice you still have [that thing you left lying on the floor] the next day.
Just saying as a lot of people get puppies for the aww but don't expect the hellstorm of gnawing they come with for the first 6-18 months. They'll be fine, it's just a puppy thing. Lots of walks and chew toys is your best defense.

Dogs are wholesome but this is why I don't think I could own one myself
