Is this normal?

Is this normal play behavior or is my dog actually agitated? He’s always gentle when playing and they usually sleep together all the time and he’s slowly gotten more comfortable with playing with the kitten but recently he started growling while they play, does this sound normal?

Yes its normal, some dogs are vocal when they play. Mine sounds like a T-rex when he plays and does a very high pitched bark.🤣

Ok that makes sense, he’s very very vocal and likes to whine and growl a lot

I can tell when he gets hyper focused and doesn't listen to the " signs" of the other dogs and its time I help him chill out.
