The American Kennel Club (AKC) has stated that the zoomies, or "frapping," are a normal behavior for dogs that allow them to release all their extra energy before bedtime, usually towards the end of the day. This behavior is more common in puppies as they have more energy they need to get rid of than older dogs. The AKC warns that frequent zoomies could indicate that your dog isn't getting enough exercise during the day, so an extra walk or play session may help.
