The excitement and hyperactivity of puppies are common behavioral manifestations. Puppies are often full of curiosity and energy in the early stages of their lives, and they are willing to explore the world in various ways. However, excessive excitement and hyperactivity can cause trouble and challenges to the owner.

First, establishing good daily routines and training plans is one of the important steps to control puppies' excitement and hyperactivity. Set a clear daily schedule for puppies, including activities such as diet, exercise, play and training. Give the puppies enough exercise, such as walking, playing and playing, etc., at the prescribed time, to help them consume energy. In addition, regular simple training activities allow puppies to learn basic instructions, such as "sit down", "lying down", "standby", etc., to improve their attention and self-control.

Second, providing moderate stimulation and toys can help alleviate the puppy's overexcitation problem. Puppies usually crave fresh thrills and play, so owners can provide them with a range of age-appropriate toys, such as biting toys, smart toys and stuffed toys. These toys can provide enough entertainment and stimulation to help the puppy focus and reduce the possibility of overexcitation.

It is also important to teach puppies to be calm and relaxed. Targeted training and interaction help puppies learn to calm down and control their emotions. Teach the puppy to take the right behavior, such as sitting or lying down, and rewarding its performance of calmness and relaxation. Gradually extend the reward time and encourage puppies to remain calm and relaxed.

During the training process, the master needs to maintain patience and consistency. The learning process of a puppy requires time and repetition, and consistent discipline and rules will have a positive impact on the puppy’s behavior. Therefore, the owner needs to formulate clear rules and insist on implementing them in daily life. Also, avoid providing too much reward and stimulation to avoid overexciting. Motivate puppies moderately and appropriately to establish stable behavioral patterns and emotional restraint abilities.

In addition to the methods mentioned above, appropriate socialization is also an important means to help puppies control excitement and hyperactivity. Moderate socializing with other dogs and humans can help puppies learn to get along with them and gain positive stimulation and interaction. Participating in pet social activities, training classes, or regularly interacting with other dogs can provide moderate social stimulation, helping puppies learn skills to get along with others, and improve concentration and concentration.

Owners need to always pay attention to the health of the puppy. In some cases, excessive excitement and hyperactivity may be associated with anxiety, pain, or other health problems. If the owner finds that the puppy's hyperexcitable behavior persists or is accompanied by other symptoms, he/she should consult a veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment in time.

Overexcited and hyperactivity in puppies are common behavioral problems, but through proper management and training, they can learn to control their emotions and behaviors. Establishing regular daily activities plans, providing moderate stimulation and toys, teaching puppies to calm and relax, moderate socializing and consistent training are key to effectively managing puppies’ excitement and hyperactivity.
