Introduce her to one dog for ever increasing periods of time. Start out for a minute or two. Increase the amount of time as she acclimates. Do this on "neutral" ground such as a park or field. Once she is used to being around one dog, introduce a second dog and begin again. Praise and reward her as she progresses. A pheromone product such as the Adaptil collar or DAP diffuser may decrease any anxiety during introductions.
