aggresion to other dogs

[foxlawn]

Hello,
my dog Zoey, a female spayed chow/Sheppard mix is great around people if they let her get to know them or check them out first, she is a sweet heart about 85 lbs., problem is she will show aggression toward other dogs especially smaller dogs, we recently had an incident where she bit a smaller dog, she is protective of her territory with other dogs but not people, we don't have a dog park here and no one close has a dog her size, what can we do to break her aggression?

Hi fox lawn and thanks for your post,
Before we look at a full solution for your dog I was wondering whether I could get a little information/clarification. Is she only aggressive to other dogs on your property or is there also a problem while on walks etc?
