Hi All, I know most of you don't let you dogs play or train immediately before or after meals. Maybe I have weird dogs but they are crazy after they eat. They get the zoomies and drive me nuts wanting to play. I'm thinking that it should be intinctual to settle down and digest after a meal. I know, they are animals and don't neccessarily know what's good for them. Any ideas, short of crating them, to keep them calm for awhile after meals? Or, would you just let them play? BTW, these are adult dogs, 5 and 6 yrs old. Laura Thomas http://www.treasureranchgsds.com/ ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
