Deer have sharp hooves and can rear up and strike out with them. An inexperienced dog that does not know how to hunt or kill deer can easily get hurt by such actions from a deer, especially a doe that is protecting a nearby fawn.
Bucks that are in rut are even more dangerous. Their antlers are like daggers, and their attitude towards most living things, especially when cornered, can be very furious to the point of being fatal. Even a seasoned dog that has learned to kill deer for food will stay out of a rutting buck's way.
So who will win in a fight between a dog and a deer? Well it depends on the circumstances of either animal, like that described previously. In most cases, if the dog is smart and able to learn fast and has the instinct to kill, the dog will win by dodging the flying hooves and antlers and going for the throat of that deer. Usually death comes after the deer tires to the point of exhaustion when it cannot run no longer.

∙ 12y agoIt is highly unlikely that these two species would fight. Deer are timid creatures and are smart enough to let a large beast like a gorilla alone, and they would easily get scared away by a male gorilla that thinks they are a threat to his family. Besides, both species are herbivores, which makes the chance of these two animals fighting each other improbable.

Depends on the dog's breed and size. If he's big enough (medium-large, like that of a coon-hound which has been bred to hunt and even fight racoons), then it's likely that the dog would win.
Who would win in a fight between a dog and a panther?
Well... Considering that panthers and Wolves live in completely different areas.... I don't think this is a plausible question BUT I believe that one on one a panther would win, but it wouldn't be one on one because wolves close to always live/hunt/ and feed in a pack. And also.... a wolf would probably not be stupid enough to take on an opponent he/she knew they couldn't win, they would run away with their tail between their legs and their ears back, unless it was for territory then the wolf might try to defend, or it might just move on to another area. Hope that helped.

Can a dog kill a deer?
Depends on the size of the dog and whether it's killing the dear out of hunger or if it's trained to kill deer. Tiny toy dogs are no match for a deer, but medium to large-sized dogs are likely candidates, especially if the dog is skilled, experienced and trained to avoid the deer's sharp horns and hooves enough to bring it down. A hungry dog will chase the deer until it's tired, too tired to put up much of a fight when the dog attempts to attack it. A hunting dog will do the same thing, but will often be with other hunting dogs in order to bring down the deer quicker.
