Roughly between the ages of 2-3, dogs become socially mature. And, as a result, we fully expect some changes in their behavior. Typically, we should expect our adult dogs to: Play less in general. Be more selective about who they will play with. Be less tolerant of what they consider rude behavior. If your dog is healthy and not afraid, it’s absolutely okay for her to simply not want to play as much. Sure, some dogs go on acting like puppies - perhaps for just a while longer or forever.
