Couldnt hold myself

[Times Roman]

Normally dogs comes to each other and smell each other.

My dog came to his, smelled, his dog attacks mine and my was trying to protect herself!

I was half meter from them to take them apart and he just kicked her!

Does it sounds right to you??

Maybe I'm a bit older and see potential problems more than others. I would never take my dog in public off a leash.

I would never allow my dog to approach another dog unless a signal from the owner indicating it was OK (did the other dog owner signal it was OK for your dog to approach?). My remaining dog is a shrimp, so for my own dogs safety, I would not let her approach.

Your dog approached, and not the other way around, so technically, you are liable. The other dog owner apparently had control of his dog, and you did not have control of your dog.

Before Kicking, I probably would have jerked back on my dog's leash and issued a stern command, like "NO"

If I were a juror in court, I'd say it was your fault.

Sorry
