its so funny | Sometimes I tell people that Jasper is like an over tired Baby... The more tired he is, the crazier he seems to get, until he suddenly just crashes.

| I think you may be referring to the "zoomies". Most dobermans are prone to this activity anytime and anywhere, but mainly seems to occur in the house. |

| Nissa did her zoomies on my bed the other night....it was the funniest thing I have seen in a while...
Although, Arkus & Nissa do zoomies around the inside of the house - usually one has a toy and the other is running to catch up.... |

| | Alpha | Mona defnitely gets the zoomies! We just stand back and watch, hehe...eventually she tires out. And yes, she's even crazier AFTER a long walk! My fiance and were just talking about this the other night and thinking that taking her for these long walks is building up her stamina and we should stop walks altogether! haha! :-)

| I guess "zoomies" is a good terminology for this behavoir. 
My two will race from one end of the house to the other and all we can do is stand aside so we won't get trampled to death. It is an outlet for them to let off steam especially after a training session or a leash walk or car ride.

| Zoomies My Darla usually does this outside. It's like I have a racetrack in the
backyard.
She does sometimes race around the inside of the house.
I just let her do it until she tires out.
Glad to hear that other's dobes do it too. She's my first one
to act like this. |
