df = pd.concat([df.drop(['column_1'],axis=1), dummies],axis=1)
note:for more that one coloum keep ading in the list
dummies = pd.get_dummies(df[['column_1', 'column_2','column_3']], drop_first=True)
df = pd.concat([df.drop(['column_1', 'column_1'],axis=1), dummies],axis=1)
Example 2: pandas sample
>>> df.sample(frac=0.5, replace=True, random_state=1)
num_legs num_wings num_specimen_seen
