Hi there,
thanks for taking in this lovely sounding lab. I'm sure you will be able to get her used to other dogs as well.
Do you know much about her history? Perhaps she wasn't socialized when she was little or she had some bad experiences. She might also be insecure or feel like she is the pack leader and therefore needs to protect you.
Could you please clarify what exactly happens when she meets other dogs? Is that usually on or off leash? Are the other dogs just random dogs you meet on the street or at the dog park? How do you react when she lunges?
Do you get nervous when you see other dogs or do you see it as a good chance to practice?
Do you work with her every day? Do you follow the Alpha Dog rules?
If you could answer these questions for me that would be great.
Thanks
John
