She pulls so hard on the leash she actually is walking on her hind legs and Growling and barking. I sure hope she out grows this behavior, it is scary. |
She's scared. You could try introducing her to VERY friendly big dogs at a distance and feed her treats and reassure her that they are friendly. We do this with the big cuddly labs next door.
