    Help, she barks at everyone!

    I have a 6 month old bitch and she is so nervous of other people she barks at them. She's getting worse and will run up to them barking. At the moment she's too afraid to jump up or worse, but I'm worried it'll turn aggressive.ive been road walking her since I a pup so she's no stranger to other people, but she's still so nervous! How do I fix this?

    Hi! I myself have an 8 month old GSP. I remember when he was 4-6 months, I would be walking him in the trails by the house and if someone was to walk on by he'd bark, hair up on his spine, and stay beside my side. He would not ever approach a stranger.

    To this day if I'm walking along the road with him on a leash, he still lets out a bark here and there but he approaches the stranger no problem. I think it may be a puppy thing.

    I've never heard of aggression being common with GSP's, but I do know they have anxiety.
