Sorry to post again! This forum and your advice is invaluable!
Millie has been good with other dogs. Wants to play, plays nicely etc. However when she is on her lead and by another dog she barks and even growls!
For example, we were in the pet store today and there was an Italian greyhound in there (seen them? They are so small and fragile!) the owner bought her over, asked if they could meet etc. I said yes of course. I had to hold millie tight as she is a typical puppy and jumps in the face of other dogs which I know they don't like and i was afraid she was going to snap this tiny greyhound in half [emoji15]. So then we moved on to look at what we wanted to, in the same aisle. And she started barking at the greyhound and even growling.
This is not the first time she has done it, always on the lead. Is it wanting to play or could it be a sign of dog aggression?
Thanks!
