This is NOT normal or okay. Puppies have energy, but they do not require ten walks a day.
Your pup needs a vet check followed by referral to a veterinary behaviorist and/or drugs.
YOU are important too. You should not have to put that energy into any one pup. I'm sure there are many other things in your life that you'd like to spend time doing instead of dog walking.
One of our dogs takes Prozac. No shame in admitting it. We are all happier (including him) when he takes it. he was a rescue and came with some anxiety and overzealousness. We waited awhile, but there came a point when medicating was best. His biggest problem when not on it is chewing/eating everything (nit a puppy anymore) to the point of nearly obstructing himself and carpet eating.
Drugs don't have to be for life. It is easier to train/get control when they are taking them.
