Hi Everyone!!!
I need some advice or first-hand experience
My 3 year old pup loves people but he really really is afraid of dogs any bigger than he is (pretty much everyday around!) But instead of putting his tail between his legs he will bark at any dog that comes near him after a few sniffs. He's fine in a dog park (just wanders around by himself) unless a dog tries to play with him then he'll bark, almost in a scare a little higher pitched "get away from me" bark. He doesn't go after other dogs... he just makes sure they stay away from him.
Smaller dogs are okay (under 5 pounds) and familiar dogs are fine.
What could be the problem here and how might I fix it?
A big, huge THANK YOU in advance
