I don't think this has to do with insecurity or fear. She being very dominate with the other dogs.
I took 3 gsd's (Jyota's mother, Jyota and Mafia a 10 months female) and 3 prime toys on our regular fetch session out back. Each dog had a toy to carry. Jyota would run up with hair over croup raised and steal the toy out of the other dog's mouths. She was very persistent and wouldn't give until she stole the toy.
Only the hair over her croup and on her tail was the only part that was raised. The hair on her back and over her withers was flat.
Jyota is extra posessive about the sleeve, she wants to take it from the helper.

That can be a sign of stimulation or can be caused by pain.
Hackles up on a dog in many cases isn't a good thing, but other things such as body posture, ear and tail position should be considered. Hackles, ears and tail up can also be a confident dog letting others know it's ready to fight. I have seen this behavior in a dog and if it was a fear responce the dog sure knew how to work through it.

You teach the dog obedience and that any dog aggression will not be tolerated. That is the point of the BH, an obedience and temperament test.

Hmmmm, are you sure you are reading this right in your dog?
