It's quite simple if you use common sense, puppy proof your home, do not allow access to anything you don't want chewed, supervise and contain your pup.

I think you can buy chew repellent which you spray on whatever the object is (it has no effect on the object itself, don't worry) and it tastes AWFUL for the pup so they won't chew it again! An alternative is to get the 'Pet Corrector' - every time you spot them chewing something they shouldn't, give it a blast and they should learn not to do it again. But my pup used to chew everything, now she's nearly 15 months and she's (nearly) grown out of it!

This used to happen with my dog who's now 4. When we first had him he broke so many of my iphone chargers ear phones. He used to chew my combs and clips for my hair. My shoes! He grew out of all that eventually though. I can leave anything on the floor now because I know he won't chew them.
You need to keep all leads wires etc out of sight. That's all you can do.

Keep the wires out sights , puppies at that age chew every thing , try to get her some chewing toys or dogs bones to chew on .

bitter apple spray works well for chewing avoid harsh punishment try and entice the dog to chew on something more appropriate to save frustration over a chewed up cord.
