Would not recommend for someone working a full time job who can't provide the time help her burn off that energy. She takes several power naps during the day and started to really mellow by 7 PM or so before bedtime in her crate around 9:30. I'm up before 6AM to for a long walk and feeding, starting the cycle again. She is now 14 months old and the chewing has stopped other than her toys.

I’m noticing the same trend with mine. He has a few short naps throughout the day, the running around really tones down around 8pm and then becomes a lump at 10pm.
