I am sure this is a very novice question but here I go again.

Harley was very good untill 2 days a go. It is now he has spring fever or some one just turn the volume all the way up on his drive.
Ob is now very weak, back to food reward any toy is just way too much stimulation.
He can run for hours after the ball loung wipe.
It is like his batteries are never low.
I use to play ball for 15min at a time the leash him and he would be quiet after a few minutes when release now I keep him on leash longer and when I let him go it is like I just unleashed a TORNADO.

Walk is now hard any pace faster then a crawl get him high and he tries to tug with the leash.

He also wake up way early wanting to go play.

How do I get him to slow down. I had him a leash just hanging out and triped myself in the leash as he pace around me.

What can I do that is not too taxing for is age (1yo). The run in the wood is out for a bit as the snow is too soft and impossible to walk on. I have walk all the new dressage test (all the way up to GP) doing some ob thru out in the indoor arena so I don't get too bord walking circle when it rains to get him moving but just can get him to slow down.
I can't walk him for 12 hr a day!

Search the forum for "butt head" and you will find that what is happening is very common.

Step up the obedience and the exercise, it'll only be a year or two until he comes out of it.

Sit Down Sit Down Sit Down Sit Down aka puppy push ups

Have you tried any massage or other calming activities with your dog? I've been practicing giving Jethro and Skipper calming touch. It is an awesome way to spend time with them and seems to make a difference energy-wise.

Welcome to the world of teenage dogs!! Crazy drives, little to no self control, airhead ADD moments, what happened to all that training questions. Teenage dogs in a nutshell...

Thankfully my teenager turned 2 in Dec and is starting to grow out of that phase I had her out at school today and got a couple minutes of nice work out of her.

But Lauren is right. Up the OB, give him good exercise, good mental workouts, keep frozen kongs, etc handy for crate time. If he seems a bit pushy, do NILIF and have him earn everything.

I'd incorporate OB into his play time - don't let him mindlessly chase, make him earn it with calm focused behavior. He wants the ball, he needs to give you a down or sit first. It may start out at a micro second, but you can gradually lengthen it. I also work on send outs to targets and emergency stops during playtime - it's a great way to exercise the mind and body at the same time while teaching your dog that there are rules to the games you play.

Also, I taught Jethro Settle - that is, in a Down position, put your head on the floor and leave it there. Sometimes Jethro has a hard time settling himself (he IS tired, but he just can't calm down). I get him to Settle and do it as a timed exercise, that is, clicking and treating for longer and longer Settles. The beauty is that eventually he just starts to rest, because, that is what he is doing. At the same time, he has the intellectual challenge of doing the behaviour. It has been an awesome command. Super cute when he is excited to get going and he offers Settle as a way to get out the door.

Oh, and I got great advice on another thread - make him Sit for absolutely everything. It is very rewarding when Jethro's butt hits the ground without me asking because he knows we aren't going to move forward until he Sits.

Yeah, we all have some cabin fever this time of year. Don't worry it'll all even out. This slush will turn to mud and then dry ground, then perfect for working dogs.......uh, but we can't wait for that two week window can we?
Shrug, may as well go out now.

His ob used to be good like he would trow himself down when ask on recall or from a stand.
When we play ball he get to do some ob but not at every trow.
Now I know that is a stupid question but he now BARKS like a maniac when ask to do some thing and get got of it before I release him.
Do I wait for him to stop barking for just a split second or don't mind as long as he do what is asked of him?

Also when I use the release cue during ob he explode out. I have to plant my feet when the Tazmanian Devil goes off

My dog ran, off leash, non forced exercise, enclosed baseball field; 45 min. a day (or longer)at that age.

These are outdoor, type dogs = they can handle the elements, ie snow, rain, mud, .....
