This is completely normal behaviour common to all breeds and types of dogs – although it is most common in puppies and adolescents, and generally occurs less as they get mature. But that’s not to say it’ll stop entirely – many older dogs will still have FRAPs. Although it’s caused by excess energy build-up or a release of stress, there are a few occasions that are likely to cause a FRAP. Typically, dog zoomies won’t last very long and will be over almost as soon as they began, and your dog will plonk themselves down for a much-needed rest. The reality is that we don’t exactly know but zoomies are generally caused by a build-up of excess energy or stress which is then released in one short burst.
