has he met physically similar dogs to Max?...
it might be something about his looks... or it could be the thing he was sensing when you contacted Nancy...
if he´s met dogs after the altercations.. it seems his aggression is just towards Max...

This looks like a job for *Super Nancy*!
Thankfully nobody was hurt.
One guy at the dog park has 2 Rotties and a Gr. Dane. Another guy has a Boxer.
There could be 35 dogs in the park but the mini-second that the Rotties see that Boxer...let's put it this was..somebody is told to leave, regardless of who arrived first. I haven't seen the guy with the 3 dogs in ages. My guess he was asked not to come back. I could never figure out if it's a smell, attitude, physical appearance. It was, well, odd and scary as he$$
I know you feel awful. Hope Nancy can help.![]()
I've been Boooo'd!
Hank has that issue with my boyfriend's dog, Dozer, who is a 107 lb English Black Labrador Retriever. I am assuming, it is the color & size that intimidates Hank so much that he feels he has to be "tougher" and wants to show he is the boss.

Nancy just got back from vacation and has a few readings ahead of me. I'll share her insight when I hear from her.
Two days after this last incident, I took Kia and Chipper to the park. Saw some dogs that looked similar to Max and Chipper had no problem with them. It's odd.
In the past, Chipper's been "attacked" twice at the dog park and he immediately submits, so even if Max is sending signals, I don't understand why Chipper just won't submit.

sometimes there is just something about certain dogs. it could even be something you just havent noticed yet since you have no dogs to really compare. while I hear the "build" argument all the time..I have actually had more issues with COLOUR. Misty is fine dandy and friendly..to all but medium to large RED dogs. red dogs more then an inch smaller then her are just like any other dog, she has often met 2 dogs of the same size, same build, and same breed, where one was red and the other was not...and in each case she is totally normal with the non red, but went ballistic upon SIGHT of the red one, dont matter to her if its a doberman, a pit or a retriever.
or Happy has issues with certain dogs that I have yet to figer out, Schnauzers are a hot spot for her, she can be totally fine with them one minute and go nuts on them the next, any other breed when she is ok with them once, she is ok with them forever. the one exeption is Macy..Macy is a Heeler/Pyreneese X and as often as Happy has met this dog, and as long as she has known her..she HATES Macy, darned if I can figer out why!
