Hi all.
I have a 10 month old shepherd who is a very lovey and gentle dog in everyway and very obedient.
She was chased a few times recently by other dogs and has now started to growl and bark and snap at other dogs
She lives with a collie and has two other dogs come to play at my yard on a regular basis and has no issues in these situations, it seems to be only when we are out walking/visiting etc.
So I am just asking for some advice on how to help her. I think it's very much a scared dog thing as she was fine before being chased. I am aware that she is a big dog tho and when she starts barking and growling other owners snap at me even tho I have her right by my side.
To me she seems like she needs to gain confidence again.
Any suggestions welcome!
I want my dog to be happy and chilled again.
