Acting as if they’ve lost their ever loving doodle minds.
We call it the “zoomies” but there’s actually a term for it.
Frenetic Random Activity Periods – a normal release of energy.
While zoomies are supposed to be prevalent in puppies and young dogs, Harley gets his FRAP on too! He loves to run in circles, then dart straight to me, jump up and “zoom” back to his circles.
FRAP’s seem to be more of an afternoon / evening activitiy. But I have witnessed a few rare mid morning jaunts.
They both seem to enjoy it, They have this look of shear joy on their faces.
My Boys get plenty of exercise – regularly, yet they still #zoomzoom.
Any and all dog breeds enjoy a moment or two of sheer bliss called FRAPing.
When it happens around here – I just sit back and enjoy the show!
for tuning in the entire month of this 2016 Blogging from A-Z Challenge.
If you missed a few letters – don’t fret. Visit our blog post featuring the letter “Y” titled YES for the alphabet recap.
We committed to blog everyday for the month of April (minus Sundays) completing the entire alphabet.
That was a Wonderful trip through the alphabet. Very very informative. Thank you so much.
Happy you liked it Claudette. I enjoyed it too – but I’m looking forward to blogging about the Boys next week!
Thanks Emma! Jax enjoys a good zoom-zoom after a bath too!
Thy just finished one upstairs a few minutes ago. That’s my signal to take them out back for a bit of a break! What’s so impressive to me, when they do start racing around the house they have yet to break anything. Have a great week my friend!
You, too, Cathy! Hope to meet you one of these days!!
Congratulations on reaching the finish line!
I don’t believe it’s breed specific, I’d like to think it’s their way of releasing energy in a high spirited manner. Either way, I love to watch – they always seem to have such fun when their doing it. Thanks so much for hanging with us during the challenge! Have a great week!
Way to ‘zoom’ across the finish line on all things Doodle. Well done!
HA! I like that!! Hope you enjoyed it – thanks for sticking with us.
Awesome zoomies!! Bichons are known for Zoomies too! Except for them, it is called the Bichon Blitz!
My sis calls that “FRAP”ing too. But we call it devil-dogging at our house. 🙂 Rita doesn’t devil-dog all that often, though. She’s a fairly mellow girl!
Ha ha, I love the Tasmanian Devil reference. I often have to dodge Luke when he gets going! I don’t think the girls have ever really done zoomies; or it was so long ago now I don’t remember. It will be interesting to see if Luke continues to do them as he gets older. I just love watching him go!
