| When Do They Settle Down? Tyke is always bouncing off the wall with energy. He drives the other 2 nuts. It's cute tho.Zip loves to play with him until he plays to ruff and he gets hurt. But I am so worn out. I take him for nice long walks to.Tyke will take every toy away from zip is that normal? Even when he not playing with it. Will this last a yr or longer? |

| Hmm. not to upset your applecart,,but Bailey was OUT OF CONTROL, on 10 all the time,,until about 1.5 years old, I noticed a big change when he was a year and a half... other people comment also,, " He's so much calmer, He's so much better." I'm thinking... wonder what they said about him before... Probably don't wanna know.

| LOL... terriers have very high energy levels, get used to it. i usually take daisy on daily walks (2miles+) and when we get home, she still wants to play and run around.

| Puppies and toddlers, there is no end to their energy. Do you have a fenced yard where they can play? |

| We have occasional periods of rest. Usually when everyone else is busy. Other than that it's playtime at our house until about 1 am

| He will definately settle down! I promise! My sister's yorkie (now 3 years old) was such an extremely bad puppy!!!! Now all she does is lay around. My yorkie, Hobbs, is just 6 months old and still SO hyper! He runs and jumps all over Sophie and literally antagonizes her to death! But Sophie is so docile that she just stands there and lets Hobbs do it. I love how Sophie is so calm, but sometimes I wish she would by just a little hyper sometimes. I guess it is one extreme or the other! |

| How old are they all?Are you home with them all day,or is he bouncing with energy after being quiet when you are at work?Do they have a garden to play in too? Sounds as though you are walking enough.Games of fetch tire my pup out a bit in between walks. They are all different,like children,but I am sure he will calm down eventually. What are you feeding? Perhaps it could be making him hyper-just an idea.

| Give them all something nice to chew-my pup loves pork chews of any sort and will chew for a good half an hour or more. Peace! Separate them for an hour to give the others a rest and play fetch with Tyke. I have to do this with the cats and my puppy, who start to scratch. Just some ideas.

| Yes they are very hyper dogs! You just have to wait it out and they will eventually calm down! And fighting over toys, in my house that is a daily thing that goes on, I can buy 10 of everything but they never want their own they always want what they other one has
