I was out walking my Honey today where I often go with her, up on the South Downs. It's lovely. Well wasnt to start with today Crying or Very sad I let Honey out of my car bless her and she went and greeted a Collie. All was ok. We all walked off in different directions then met up again ten mins later. They greeted again then in a flash, I'm sorry it was all so quick. My baby was on the floor pinned down by this dog. She was squealing so loud omg it was awful. She ran back to me cowering, I couldn't look at her face straightaway had to wait til I was home with her. They did ask if she was ok but I didn't get an apology. honey has a slight swollen face and two marks, one drew blood Crying or Very sad
Omg it was awful.
I promise I didn't Molly coddle her. I made sure she was ok but I knew I couldn't make her afraid of all dogs and worry every time she met others.
Thankfully we met some lovely people up there who had young dogs and Honey managed to settle and play for awhile. She didn't go too far away from mummy from then on.
My poor kiddies when they got home couldn't believe it bless them. I'm still in a bit of shock.

It could have been the older dog was just maybe unhappy with puppy behaviour (as a lot are) and was trying to correct her but went to far. Collie's are notorious for nipping, as born herders, it is heightened when they are kept as pets and not fully fulfilled. This is very common.

Don't let it worry you though, Honey will be fine, it won't bother her at all. Just go on the way you were and keep socialising as much as possible. Smile

Harvey was attacked by 4 different collies as a pup, but don't over fuss to her about it, just get back out and keep mixing her with other dogs.

If she senses your nervous it can affect her around other dogs Smile hope shes ok

Thanks Ella. I didn't over do it with the fussing. I've seen others fuss and make it worse. She got straight on to playing with others and it didnt stop us with our walk. We had only just started it.

Thanks Mat. They certainly didn't seem to take the dog out for much of a walk, they could of only done fifteen mins if that up there. I met a lady with a GSD puppy who honey made friends with and she mentioned they had taken the dog back on its lead to their car. Poor thing.

Honeys usually pretty good in realising another dog has had enough or they arent so keen on saying hello. She will just walk past. Maybe today she did just go too far bless her

Everything will be fine so don't worry. As a pup Logan got his fair share of nips, which never really bothered him. One did but that was a whole different situation. You'll be fine Smile

Collie's are fantastic dogs, but not house pets unless they get plenty of exercise. That said, do not be wary of them either.

Try not to be too upset, some dogs are grumpy and over-the-top. Loki's annoyed plenty of dogs because of how excitable he was, even the friendly ones would have a snap at him. She'll be OK Big Grin

Poor honey, sounds like you handled it well though >Big Grin< They've all had the odd scuffle at some point, sure it won't have a lasting effect.

Aww poor bubba !!!!

Some dogs are intolerant of young pups. The collie was most likely giving honey a warning nip. It's not nice tho, I understand that. Don't let it put u off socialising her - chalk it up to experience !

Pop her on the lead to greet dogs, and be aware of other dogs body language.

Thank you all. Honey is fine bless her. It didn't ruin the rest of the walk. We did meet another collie later on and she sat and watched as he walked past her coz he wasnt interested. She is now laying flat out on the sofa tonight lol
It will be one to remember to watch the language next time but thankfully it was nothing major and now she is eight months old it's the first time it's happened so I guess I can't be doing too bad with her bless her.
Staffies are very sociable bless them.

By Honey's awful experience and the way you handled the situation, I have learnt something very valuable in how to re-act heaven's forbid it ever happens to Bo-Jangles.
