youll have to cover vet bills then im affraid,be classed as a accident,if your dog was undercontrol then it would have been down to them vica versa,my dogs are fine with other dogs but i make a habit of slipping there lead back on if another person/dogs are approaching
They've agreed to cover the vets bill and thats something, the dog should be muzzled, you wouldnt see an ex racing grey without one. If they know their dog is in anyway likely to cause harm it should be muzzled
bit of light at the end of the tunnel then mate. keep us posted what the vet has to say.
