mouse, keyboard Wires... what to do with them?

im curious if there is anyway to cover all the wires coming out of the back of the pc... my dog just chewed through my Intellipoint 4.0 Mouse (which is about 50dollars still on the market) and well im pissed but i want to avoid it, he chewed it right near the plugin is so wireless or not it doesnt matter cuz well he chews too near the usb plug. im worried he might chew my monitor wire or worse a power cord... any suggestions on covering the wires? i thought about putting a tube over all the wires but seems like it will be odd to have...

I know with cats, if you wrap the wires in tin foil it freaks them out and after a few tries at chewing them they get scared and stop, I am not sure if it applies to dogs as well, perhaps a vet would have a good suggestion.

Just get some of that flexible black tubing you use in the garden... it should be too hard for the dog to chew down on that with any force with only a small mouth, and you can route all your wires through it
