Are we over-structuring our dogs?

I’ve been bingeing the K9 Koncepts Training shorts lately, especially the ones about creating structure and avoiding over-excitement. It got me thinking: is there a point where too much structure kills a dog's personality? I love the results I'm seeing with my pup, but I wonder if I'm being too "drill sergeant" about it. Anyone else noticed their dog getting almost too robotic, or do you think their "simply chat" approach helps keep that balance? What do you guys think is the sweet spot?
