Yes and no. Yes, since you failed to avoid the other dog and made no advances in stopping them from fighting when they were starting to get aggressive. No, since the owner let their dog attack yours and was on your property.

If a dog heads toward your dog offleash, you should probably let your dog off the leash. You do this because if the dog come toward your dog and your dog is o its leash, then it is protecting you. Let your dog off leash so it can play!

Who is responsible if a dog kills your dog?

this all depends on where it happened. If your dog was on its own property leased or fenced in and the other dog was unleashed and coming on to your property and kills your dog the owner of the other dog is definitely responsible. If your dog got loose and wandered on to the other property you are responsible. If this happened in the street then which ever dog was off-leash the owner of that dog is fully responsible. That is why it is sad when a person does not have control of their animal.
