Late night ramblings

I really need to go to bed, but I need to ask this question first. What do we need to do about a dog that chews everything up? This has become a really big problem. He has chewed 2 of Dave's shoes and countless numbers of the kids shoes. He chews on baby dolls, action figures, clothes, dishes........you get the idea. EVERYTHING is in danger of being chewed up by Charlie. We really love this dog but he is eating everything. So is it too late to train him? If you have any answers I would appreciate your input. Thanks and good night!
