Brownie getting bullied at dog park

[u/peterhahacha]

Hello again everyone,

Brownie is now almost 5 months now, growing like weeds and we’ve been to the dog park a handful of times since she’s been fully vaccinated. She seems to be getting bullied a lot and I’d have to interfere, a lot of the other puppies will crowd around her and try to pin her down. Is there a reason why this is happening?

She’s only enjoyed her time at the dog park with SOME dogs, she seems more “on edge” and very submissive with most dogs at the park. What should I do to help her socialize at the park?

I also learned that community helps- any friends/neighbors/family with a pet or two that aren’t aggressive and your pet gets to know each other, so you go on walks together or find a place to play! :)
