My 7 month old Golden Retriever does. She just goes wild and skitters all over the floors (not carpeted) and bounces up, on, and off both couches. Just a sudden burst of energy then it's over.

It is called FRAP (Frenetic Random Activity Period) and it is normal in puppies! My 5 month old does this every morning and evening for about 10-15 minutes, runs like a bat out of hell around the house, jumping on furniture and tackling our 4 month old. It is completely normal and has nothing to do with how much attention you give her!!! Although you should give her plenty of it. For me, I just enjoy it cause it is very cute if you think about it. As long as she isn't destroying anything or going tooooo out of control if you have guests over! :) have fun

My six month old Chocolate Lab does the same thing. I think it is hilarious, we all get a good laugh. We walk her 2x a day for 20 min. eachx. We play with her until she passes out tired from it. Later in the evening , she will BOLT around the house like crazy. Don't really know why- but I am sure she will eventually grow out of this. No big deal.

Yes, she does it even if she has been on walks and to the dog park earlier in the day. She sleeps in the early evening and then becomes wild around 7pm for 20 - 30 minutes at the most.

you want to pass to a veterinarian ASAP! you'll likely favor to pay for laboratory checks and/or x-rays. The vet substances your canines something for discomfort and probably some intravenous fluids to make her extra mushy contained in the couple of minutes period. that is extremely conceivable that your senior canines has one of those canines dementia or listening to and or/eye topics. besides the undeniable fact that, in case your canines's behaviour is all of unexpected diverse there is very nearly easily something bodily incorrect with it. If she is all of unexpected very aggravating and panting she is probable in extreme discomfort. that is likewise conceivable that the canines has had a stroke or heart attack. i latterly lost my senior woman even as she presented similar indicators. She had developed a wide, malignant tumor on her spleen that replaced into waiting to burst. Her panting replaced into by way of discomfort.

haha! My dog does that. He's a pit bull. I call it a "pit fit." It usually does only last a while. I usually chase him, which makes it last a little longer. They're so cute when they do that!

Yes in our house it is called the "rocket run". It is very amusing.
