Yes, unless the other dog has an owner and the owner said that it was his fault. If its a stray dog just take it to the vet and tell them what happened, you shouldn't get in trouble unless the other dog has an owner and decides to press charges against you.

∙ 14y agoi know this sounds insane but really what you need to do is take them on a walk together if possible. the walk should seem relaxing and this will help them relieve tension between the two of them this will also help them form a pack. While on the walk if your dog is staring at the other dog nudge his face away with your knee so they do not stare and feel like fighting. you will probably have to do this a couple times until they think that the other dog is okay to be around. They just need to form a pack

∙ 13y agoIt depends on how much damage the other dog inflicted on yours. If it was just a little scuffle; make sure you have your vet give him a through examination to make sure nothing major is damaged.
If your dog was mauled and badly injured and you took him to the vet and to keep him alive it costs you a arm & leg, I would suggest that you prosecute the owner. In fact in both instances I would file in small claims court for the cost of you vet bills.

probably the person with the off leash dog
If your dog attacks another dog what are you liable to pay for?
The other dogs owner is responsible of ALL damages. You actually have the right too shoot the dog if it disturbs you on your'e property!
If a dog on a leash attacks another that isn't on a leash but is on its own property who is liable for the vet bill?
The owner of the leashed dog is liable. If the dog that is on its own property is attacked, the owner should pay for the "home" dog's care. The owner of the leashed dog is still responsible for its behavior.
Are you responsible for medical bills for a trespassing dog that your dog mauled on your property?
Would you be responsible for the attack of your dog upon another dog on someone else's property? Of course! It depends on the relative culpability of the dogs. Dogs' conceptions of property lines are unlike yours, but on the whole you are responsible for the behavior of your dog. A dog that attacks anything other than obvious prey is almost certainly a vicious dog'. One has the obligation to constrain a dog that has a tendency to attack people, livestock, or other dogs. You might be less responsible if the other dog spoils for a fight, but that would be hard to determine.
Can you shoot a dog attacking your pet cat?
no it's illegle You are very uninformed. Basically it's a Constitutional right to protect ones property. If your dog attacks a cat on the cat owner's property, the cat owner can protect his/her property. Controlling your dog is the responsible approach. (Please note the spell check option.)

The owner of the cat & possibly you if you &/or your dog were trespassing on the owner's property or if your dog was not on a leash.
If a dog bites you who is responsible to pay the quarantine if the dog is in its own yard?
You are responsible for paying your own quarantine because you are on the dog owner's property.
If a livestock is trespassing on your property can you kill it?
Basically it's a Constitutional right to protect ones property. If your dog attacks livestock on the livestock owner's property, the owner can protect his/her property. Controlling your dog is the responsible approach. (Please note the spell check option.) you can kill it if you want If it also attacks you then yes you can kill it
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.
If a friend and his dog are visiting. Am I responsible if they dod not have leash on dog and it attacks a dog that the owner is walking. Am I responsible in any way?
No it is always the owners responsibility, if they fail to control their animal they are held liable.
Is a person responsible for a vet bill to which their dog has attacked another dog?
Yes, if your dog was on leash or on your property and another dog came attacked your dog then the dog's owner should be responsible for all vet bills.
If the tenant's dog bites someone is the homeowner liable?
I believe a dog's owner is responsible for the dogsbehavior unless it's stated somewhere on the property that the dog will bite. Then it's your own fault for going on their property and not realizing that dog is nuts
