He growls at her and she leaves him alone

I have two dogs. Timber is a 7 year old golden retriever mix. He is the most handsome, obedient, and independent dog I’ve ever seen. I also have a 1.5 year old purebred golden retriever. Bella is very sweet, disobedient, and very playful.

Timber and Bella get along very well. They chase each other in the yard, share toys, and play tug of war. They even drink from the same water bowl at the same time. Belle, my disobedient little girl is so cute, she likes to move her butt from side to side while drinking water. She also likes to leave a trail of water behind so everyone knows that she has quenched her thirst.

Every once in a while, Timber doesn’t want to play with Bella. When she tries to get him to play, he growls soflty and she leaves him alone.

I wished the ‘growl’ technique worked with other humans…
