This is how they communicate and how they play.

However, humans often misinterpret the sounds for aggression.

On the contrary, this is simply a common way that dogs express their emotions verbally.

However, if the dog has taken on an aggressive posture while growling, then you may wish to be concerned about a fight.

This type of dog growling indicates that your pet is having fun; your dog might even be trying to tell you that they want to keep on playing! ... Do keep an eye on the situation in case it escalates, but usually growling during play indicates that a dog is just having fun.
