This happened with my dog as well! I’m just trying to reinforce the fact that being around other dogs is a good thing and not a bad thing. Rewarding good behavior is definitely helping…but what has helped the most is actually my demeanor. Before, I used to anticipate fights happening which would get me very tense. The more tense I got, the worse my dog got. As I learned to relax around others and not EXPECT my dog growl or snap, things got better. Any other advice is welcome though as we are not 100% yet!
