Default Chewing on toys too much?

I just adopted a 4 year old cocker. He LOVES to chew his chew toys
(mostly cow hooves, and pressed raw hide) and will sit there for hours
chewing. I don't give him the pressed raw hide anymore because he will
lay down and chew the entire thing until it's gone and then throw up.
The hooves last longer, but he will still chew on them forever. He's
alone for about 9 hours a day when we're at work and I leave the chew
toys with him so he has something to do while we're gone. And when we
get home, we feed him and then he goes back to chewing. Eventually, I
take the bones away so that he doesn't spend too much time with them.
With us being gone so much during the week, I want him to be able to
have his toys to chew. Is it ok to let him chew on his bones this
much?
Thanks!
