We've had Jasmine for a few days, and this is how the daily routine has been so far:

Out of her dog room when Scott comes home at 6:30 am, eat breakfast (some kibble and raw food mixed for now, transitioning to all raw)
Play or go for a short walk for an hour or so until I get home at 8 am; by then she seems to be worn out a bit and snoozes for an hour with Scott
Play with me for an hour or so chasing a toy on a rope and walking around the yard
By around noon, she gets a lunch of kibble, that will phase out as she matures, take her out to potty, then she passes out for a few hours
Wake up around mid afternoon and play for a bit or entertain herself
Dinner after we eat around 6pm or so, same as breakfast
Play out in the yard for an hour or in the house if it's dark
Passes out again before going into her dog room for the night around 10pm when Scott and I go to work; brother in law checks on her periodically, but she's slept quietly for the night the last few nights

Is this too much activity for her growing body? I've mostly been letting her dictate when she feels like sleeping or playing, and how hard she wants to play. I want to keep her active and doing something when she's awake, though, so she doesn't terrorize the cats as much or chew the house apart.

Any other suggestions?
