Hi Erica!

Having a very regular sleep and exercise routine will strongly benefit the health and overall obedience of your pup. To help puppers with ample energy at night, I would try to build more exercise into his schedule in the morning before you leave for work and in the evening when you return. Depending on the age and breed of your dog, this might mean taking a long walk in the morning and 30 minutes of rigorously playing fetch at your local dog park in the evening!

For developing a daily exercise routine, if it is inconvenient to travel to a dog park each day, consider playing indoor games such as 'find the hidden toy' or using their meal time to structure 15 minutes of basic training into their schedule! Be creative (and patient) to find a stimulating activity that your dog enjoys and also tires them out so that they sleep soundly through the night!

I hope this helps!

Best Wishes,

Danny W.
