Does your dog bark at bigger dogs?
My dog tends to bark at dogs that are bigger than him (16.5). Anything smaller or near his size he likes.

My dog barks at big and small dogs. She is very little but she thinks she is big.
AHHH! This is one of my biggest problems! My little 9 pound Pomeranian has a big dog personality. He will take on my German Shepherd if given the chance. We have not gotten him fixed yet so that may be the problem? I think because they are little, they need to "yell" to let the bigger dog know that their not intimidated by a bigger dog.
Yes, my little hairless Chinese Crested will get right up in a big dogs face and bark as meanly as possible. Most big dogs just ignore him but he's lucky he has backup from my pitbull mix when they haven't taken so kindly.
At dog parks I put a collar on him that beeps and vibrates (instead of a shocker) and this works great to dissuade him from acting like such a toughy.
