You can try to say "enough" to the puppy when he is really aggravating the other dog and capture his attention with a toy or treat to defuse the situation. The pack usually takes care of themselves without human interference. However, I would moniter their play. It may be that the golden is not used to playing with puppies and has no tolerance. You don't say how old the golden is, that may play a part in it. I think that they will get used to each other (with supervision) and will be good for each other in the long run. Good luck. Let us hear how it progresses.
