Dog turns and pulls back home on evening walk

Hi y’all, I’m looking for an explanation or advice with this. Recently, when I take my dog out for a walk in the evening (between 5pm – 6pm so I can start with some daylight still out), we don’t get far before she’s pulling back to the house with desperation. It started gradually as we made some distance at first before she’d suddenly pull back around, but today we didn’t even make it out of the driveway before she was pulling back to the door frantically, even biting the leash when I didn’t immediately move.

I’ve tried going different ways as well. Maybe she’s hearing something I’m not. She doesn’t do this during morning or afternoon walks and was excited to go on a walk tonight when I indicated it, so I have no clue where this abnormal behavior came from. I’m not going to force her to walk when she seems so panicked, but I’d love to know if anyone else’s dog has done this or why my dog is doing this in the first place. Thank you in advance!
