Pet's info: Dog | Chihuahua | Female | spayed
My chi growls/barks/shows teeth when my other dogs play. She is usually wagging her tail when she does this. What is this behavior about?

She wants to play too, is talking to the others, and it is benign. She may be a bit timid which is why she does not join, but she is clearly wanting to play (wagging tail, excited, showing teeth). All that excitement!
