Mike I could be wrong here, but I would be tempted NOT to put her back on the lead if you can help it, as maybe you are feeding her fear :? or giving her a reason to be frightened. I must admit due to altercations I've had previously (not with Butty) it has made me more wary of certain breeds/types of dogs, as hard as i try I just can't help myself :? I do try VERY hard not to pass this on to Butty :oops:
I'm sure others will have advice for you....cos I've not given you any
but just wanted to say to me it sounds a bit like fear, dogs usually act in one of 2 ways...act like "10 men" ie, barking and making themselves seem aggressive to make the other dog go away...or become more timid and nervy :shock:
One idea would be to try and meet up with other people you know, with their dogs and see what Daisys reaction is then, and praise her for behaving and acting correctly.
