It sure sounds like she's a bit intimated by the animals at the dog park; I would probably try going at off hours when it's not so crowded & as she begins to feel more secure & confident then maybe try when it's more populated.

Its probably because she feels happy that she's around other dogs. But with the bigger dog she probably feels like they scare her or something.

It's probably fear and dominance. If the dog is smaller than her, or the same size as her, she feels like she can dominate them. But if they are bigger than her, she doesn't feel like she can be in charge, and she gets scared.
