Just keep the bigger dog on the lead when the 2 dogs 1st meet and if there is any sighs of the dog going till snap give him a good pull on the lead and a good telling off.Once you let them off the ead just make sure your close by so if the dog starts yea can sort it out quick and the pup does not get hurt.

How old is the other dog if there of similar ages let them get on with it if the other is alot older may not be a good idea

The pup is fully jabbed up (different vets have different ideas as to when it's done )

i was assuming they were both pups!! looking back over it if the other dog is older i suggest taking them out on neutral ground and walking them together wouldnt even let them get next to each other till they both calm down(excited pups and snappy dogs are a bad combo)!! when you feel they are both comfortable let them greet each other in a controlled manner and if this goes well let them have a little play!! if the bigger dogs running like a lunatic i wouldnt bother as the pup could get injured easily at that age!!!
