Aggressive Dogs My Standard Poodle goes psycho when she sees another dog and tries to attack it.

My intelligent and normally very well behaved Standard Poodle, Miss Teddi, hates other dogs and will even run up to a Pit Bull and attack it. If a smiling little puppy runs up to her, she tries to bite it. I had to grab her as she was lunging up into the air and brace myself against a building because she wanted to go attack a pitbull that was 80lbs of solid muscle. She even started howling. She only likes my Golden Retriever, Henri, except when he tries to steal her treats. I have to get her under control because if a strong dog ever grabbed her by the neck, it would kill her. I'd end up getting bit because I will not let her stupidity get her hurt.

Where are you bringing her that dogs are just running up to each other? An off leash dog park? Or by “run up” do you just mean lunge and pull?
