We have 3 dogs in our household, all of which are of fantastic nature, love them to bits! Only, one of our dogs who is a cross between a springer and a spaniel doesn't seem to want to stop playing! She is always walking around with her ball, or anything she can find for us to throw. She wears herself out running around and she gets exhausted. Is there anything we could do to calm her down. She goes on 2 long walks a day, and still keeps going! Any ideas or tips are welcome, thankyou

well, how old is your dog? maybe she's just a puppy and is just a bit hyperactive...

Our dog is 3. She is a rescue dog and had a hard life to start off with. I think it may be a form of attention seeking, although she does get plenty. She can get a little hyperactive though, she is still young. :)

We have a dog a cross between a german sheperd and a border collie and in the first 2-3 years we had her she was mad and didn't want to stop playing and running around. A few years later at 6 she is very lazy and hardly does anything. Maybe its because we do not walk her as much as we used to or more likely she is getting older and more mature. Maybe the same will happen for your dogs.

Maybe, hopefully she doesn't wear herself out too soon. Thankyou for your comment :)
