On leash aggression is pretty common, unfortunately. We humans, attached to the other end, feed them our own nervous signals/emotions and also create "impolite" body language and behaviours in our dogs when we let the leashes go taught. If you can keep a LOOSE leash when your dog is on leash and others are around, it might help.
