However on walks, she sometimes meets other dogs the other dogs just come to sniff and say hi but she runs back. After a while when she realises that the dog isnt going to back away she becomes aggressive and bited them (not a friendly bite). I dont want her to be scared of other dogs but I think being aggressive towards them is even worse, isnt there a happen in between? Any ideas on how to help her?
