Wrap the cords excess tie it together and tack it to the back of the desk/furniture. They can't get between the furniture and the wall. Or try wrapping it in cord protector tubing.

My dogs never chewed the electric cords I think because I was really careful about that matter and later they just stopped chewing stuff, till one day last Xmas jasmin decided to try one (tree ligths).......I heard a horrible screaming and yelping and crying, I was sure something horrible happened to the dog, they were together, so we took a look and there was jasmin shivering and snarling and perrito on her side crying we really don't know exactly what happened, all we know is she chewed the cordon and almost die. Thanks god it did not happen but sure they don't go close to the wires now, this is no helping your question but I felt like share this, I tough they were doing great and I could have lost them and for sure jasmin was hurt and scare to death me too of course and I still feel guilty no need to say thy were no more Xmas ligths last year.
