Ah, that brings back memories. I remember thinking Eddie would never get over that stage. Fortunately, he started mellowing out at about a year. He still has a lot of energy, but a couple walks a day make a difference.

You might try some more brain games. They tend to tire them out too. Teach some basics. Sit. Down. Stay. Then come up with some tricks. Shake. Roll over. Whatever. If you spend 5 minutes three times a day, they'll learn a lot, have fun and tire themselves out to boot. Check into an obedience class too.

We also play chase games, but it's hard to beat fetch. You get to sit while they do all the running.
