I would suggest finding dogs you know for him to socialize with, and if you absolutely must go to the dog park, being more involved in making sure he is having a good time. Allowing your dog to correct another unknown dog is something that can very easily end in a fight. Sometimes these are just little tussles, and sometimes it ends in the injury of one of both dogs. The way you turn a dog like this into a confident dog is by communicating that he is safe. You will step in when he is uncomfortable, you will make sure he isn't getting rushed by other dogs, and that other dogs are actually pretty great. To teach him other dogs are not a threat, you need to avoid the dogs that are a threat.

When things would get a little rough, our little guy would occasionally bare his teeth and growl/bark. This would be followed usually by a pause, and then a resuming of chasing. I want to encourage appropriate behavior in the dog park and avoid any possible escalations of aggression. Is this an appropriate reaction from our little guy or should I try and intervene when he bares his teeth and growls.
