My budgie keeps running back and forth. Wether it be on his perch or the bottom of his cage. He often screeches or chirps while he does so. At first I thought it was to get attention from my dogs or me and now I'm not sure. Is this normal?

It might be that John is just very excited/happy in that moment and is wanting to let everyone know. If he's otherwise acting healthy and normal I wouldn't be too worried. You can try offering a treat or placing a new toy in his cage to see if it helps keep him happy and interested in something to play with.
