Hi guys buddy is nearly 11 months and in the evening between 6 and 9 he becomes crazy !
Running around and doing naughty things at 100 miles per hour !
He has at least hour and half walking per day and other ideas or tips to calm him and settle him for bed

Thanks guys :)
 
Nellie is the same way! She normal does this between 7pm- 9pm then she just crashes and falls asleep. When she starts to the running around in doors I swear am convinced she's on crack! lol I just take her to the back yard and she runs through all of the flower beds at a 100 miles an hour and then barks incessantly! It must be a frenchie thing
 
It's manic isn't it !! He starts chewing things flying up and down the hall and just goes generally crazy !! And it's non stop during that time !

And yes he does start barking at the smallest things !
 
Actually Nellie is doing that right this moment! I worked half day today and have been at home with her since 1pm. It's 4:20pm now and 10 mins ago she just started the manic behavior! I put her in her play pen and she still kept going so I have taken her to the back yard to to around. I don't know what to do either
 
This can happen at times, Cheli does it too between 7 and 8 PM I call it a 'spaz attack'. But, if you boy is doing this every night, I would have to ask how much exercise is he getting during the day? We have a pet sitter come for and hour each day, plays with them, potty or a walk just to get some energy out of them while we are at work.
 
Sounds like he has some built up energy that needs to get out. I can always tell when Jax needs to go to daycare because he gets crazy and naughty. Do you have a yard where he can run around? Access to a doggy daycare? Play dates with other dogs?
 
Yes, it's built-up energy. Louie does this as well.. I think as long as he only plays.. it's fine. The only thing to avoid is him doing things he is not allowed to. You can channel his energy into a gentle tug game or play with the ball.. or something he enjoys, until he becomes tired
 
Dexter does this on the days he doesn't get a long enough walk. Last week in the rain was a nightmare! And he'll start the morning after too...... His walk plus playing in the garden is usually enough to prevent it.
 
Buddy does go out with dog walkers in the day for hour and half plus we walk him for hour in eve. Plus he has back garden ! I think he is just a crazy bully !! We have started to take him for his evening walk later so he does that during hyper time!
But he still goes on even we get home ! He has lots of toys and we play with him. Perhaps it's just puppy stage. As he used to be like it a lot of the time and now it's only evening really. It's just hard work at time but he's worth it :)
 
But agree it's def worse if he can't get out to walk for whatever reason. Such as Monday after ripping his dew claw off Sunday evening !! :(

Wally was like that even though he got plenty of exercise and play time, but he has slowed down a bit now that he's 4. Hang in there!
 
That's what we call the bewitching hour, LOL They do go crazy before bed, even our English used to do it, but now that they are older, they don't do it any longer.
 
Ha Ha perfect name!!! it us before bed but lasts bout 2-3 hours! :)

I don't know if this is at all possible for you but you can test it out. If there's a dog daycare close to you take him there for a day or half day and see what happens? Nellie was a day care yesterday for the full day and played for hours. She was exhausted by the time I picked up. Passed out in the car right away. Ate dinner and then slept the rest of the night from 7pm till 6 this morning! And she is so well behaved so far today lol. I love day care!
 
HAHA wow I am glad we're not the only ones! BANKSY AND AIKO GO NUTS at night together RIPPING around the house like madmen. Its actually insane
 
This is something we refer to as the Zoomies with Chance it starts around 7-8 pm and just when you think he is done you touch him and bang the starter gun went off. And being a 40 lb muscle mass when he throws himself at you watch out he is like a Tasmanian Devil Taz

I think we should all record our frenchies during their "zoomies" and post it! I just let her run around the backyard and move all deadly items out of her way LOL
