If they have a build up of energy that isn’t being addressed with exercise and mental stimulation.
A stressed dog will be more tense and wide-eyed, and its tail will stay low and tucked even when stopping or pausing.
In this case, it is best to try and calm them down and consider what has caused their stress.
If you think your dog will harm themselves in the house, instead of trying to stop the behaviour, just direct the behaviour outside instead or if not possible, a carpeted area.
You will be able to predict when the zoomies are likely to strike and make sure your dog is somewhere you can both enjoy them without any fear of injury.
