Is this personality or behavior that can be changed?
Hey Tom, love the podcast! Because of guys like you and Will Atherton, my 10-month golden retriever is killing it. I wouldn’t say she’s at level 3 yet but she is definitely on her way. There’s only one thing that I’ve been questioning and it’s regarding her play towards other dogs. She regularly sees two other dogs(both that are well trained) and I regularly have to recall her away from dogs because she can be a little overbearing. She’s bigger than the other dogs and rushes into them, overpowers them, and mouths them until they look like a slobbery mess. During a long play session, the visiting dogs alternate between trying to get away from her but then eventually going back into play. She will quickly knock it off if I recall her or tell her to go to her place. Is this an appropriate level of play for dogs? I want to try to advocate for these other dogs because it doesn’t seem like these dogs can tell her to knock it off. She’s a golden so I know she will always be super friendly but is this just her personality or should I do some other training to eliminate this level of play?

My favourite time of the week is when Tom Davis uploads a new podcast. They are always so informative and interesting without being repetitive. I have a reactive Shar pei and these podcasts help me massively to make progress with her! Would definitely recommend

I’ve been watching toms YouTube for a very long time! When I learned he had a podcast I was so excited to listen while walking with my dog! Tom has helped me learn how to use adverse tools properly and has taught my family that they’re not all bad!
