I can take this dog outside for two hours and throw the ball, run around with her and bring her inside and she still wants to play.

I am thinking of getting a doggy backpack and loading it down with some weights of some sort. This was suggested to me from someone else.

I do appreciate what you all are telling me to do.
FYI - you can't have her carrying any weight until she's at LEAST 18 months old. Then, you'll want to make sure her hips and elbows can carry extra weight and still be OK.

So, you have 10 more months of having to do it yourself. You're right, some dogs have more energy than others, but you have to do something about it. Her running around the backyard is clearly NOT ENOUGH - so get out there and stimulate her body and mind.
