I have a female 2 yr old great pyranees/golden retriever mix. I just adopted her from the shelter I work at about three months ago. Whenever I've taken her to the dog park or a petsmart or some area where there are other dogs she growls lowly on and off while sniffing and greeting the other dog. Eventually she will warm up to the other dog and even play with them if she is at the dog park. But as soon as a new dog comes to the park she does the same thing again. However, when I walk her in my neighborhood sometimes small dogs will run up to her and sniff her and she doesn't growl at all. One time a lab even ran up to her and she didn't growl. One time at the dog park she went and sniffed another dog and the dog whipped around and tryed to attack her and she defended herself but it was over in a half a milli second. What I'm asking is should I be concerned about the low growling? Has anyone else experienced this? She has never snapped at a dog and she gets along great with my cat, but it concerns me bc I'm not entirely sure why she is acting this way.

I have had a Great Pyrenees for the last 34 yrs. Not a “working” dog except in my home. Trust them with my life and I too, would do anything for them.
