The puppy just destroyed a square inch of the carpet.
I moved the puppy gate so that he had a few feet of carpet to lie on, and he went and got two toys and a nylabone and lay down where he could be on the carpet and see me, and started chewing. And I checked, and he was chewing the Nylabone. And then there was some squeaking (from the moose toy), and then he was chewing the bone again, and then... and then, in maybe 10 minutes, probably less, he completely destroyed, down to the floor, a half-dollar sized section of carpet.
Sigh.
Needless to say, the puppy gate has been returned to the kitchen only.
