Legally in most states if their dog is off leash all that other extra stuff is out the window. That other dogs owner was negligent.
This isn't true. While they may (and unless the OP caught it all on video I doubt they would) ticket the other owner for having their dog off leash, there's a very good chance that mentioning her own dog bit her, regardless of whether or not it was caused by the all confusion, will lead to a report going to animal control and Joe will now have a "record". At least that's how it would work in NY. Having one dog off leash, even if he instigated by coming towards the leashed dog, doesn't mean that the leashed dog is forgiven for all his actions.
I would never chance it, Holly. The other owner may get a ticket, but there's a very good chance Joe would still get the worst of it.
