Gromit is a powerful chewer and has done his share of damage. We tried Nylabone and Gromit demolished it and got sick on the bits. We've found that cow hooves and deer antler (buy on-line) have been a great substitute for chair legs and such. Some dogs need to chew more than others so finding the right chewy is important. Some people dislike hard chews like hooves as some dogs can break teeth on them, but so far hooves, antler, and rawhide chews have kept Mister Iron Mouth happy.
We bought Maya the Nylabone toys & Kong toys, but she just got bored with them. Of course she likes the simple things....chewing on Frisbees and water bottles (remove cap, ring, and paper label). You can also try Antlers, they last a long time and are safe. They do not splinter or break up into bits.
Bitter apple is a great investment. If you use a little bit of vaseline and then spray the bitter apple over...it will last a bit longer.
Good luck!
I also had problems with Rocky chewing up everything in sight. My trainer suggested soaking chew ropes with water and then putting them in the freezer. The coldness will help soothe her teething pains.
