My puppy Mia is 1 year old and very energetic. She jumps and barks when she plays. and when you walk, she wants to play with you. I was concerned because my older boy dog, Mojo, did not act like that when he was her age. Is that normal for puppies?

4Yes, high energy is normal for puppies, kittens, and children. – keshlam Nov 04 '16 at 16:28

2A tired puppy is a good puppy. Give her plenty of exercise: long walks, playing fetch, etc. Challenge her mentally through obedience training and dog sports like nose work. – jalynn2 Nov 04 '16 at 17:05

3What breed of dog is Mia? Some breeds are more energetic and playful than others, although in general this is totally normal for a puppy. – LMGagne Nov 04 '16 at 17:22

This is very normal behaviour for a 1 year old dog. Dogs are energetic and do like to play especially certain breeds. I wouldn't be too disgruntled over it or worried.
