    Pertaining to the giant breeds, especially, moderation and patience in their development tends to serve them best while they attain adulthood. Nothing is to be served by forcing development by encouraging it through nutrition alone. Physical development is determined and progresses according to the genetic blueprint of each animal. Excessive forcing of the issue before physical development has prepared the body to accomplish the requested exercises has the potential for unwanted consequences.

    Similar cautions should be considered in juvenile exercise periods. Puppies, especially giant ones, are prone to incoordination, and can, literally, throw themselves into harmful positions. For example, but not limited to, throwing objects to be chased or fetched. If this requires a sudden directional change, or stop, the awkward pup may attempt a maneuver that puts abnormal and excessive stresses on the adolescent muscles and joint structures. Shoulder and other joint injuries at this age can plague the adult animal with arthritis, joint instabilities, and other infirmities that detract from their enjoyment of life. A 75 pound 8 month old puppy can run faster than it can safely turn sharply, or stop. But it will usually try. It may be hilarious watching it stumble, fall, slide and roll to a stop, but not so as it may get on its feet and limp back to you to throw the ball again.
