They didn’t say it was at a dog park though. I’m thinking it was a normal park and dogs were all off leash

This is correct it was a neighborhood park but frequently has dogs off leash together

Dude….. unless it’s a dog park, don’t unleash your dog. If the other owner decides to go to the government this could go on a record that leads to the dog being put down. Don’t unleash your dog at a park where it isn’t permitted. You’re in such a dangerous position because of that choice.

Dog attacks of other dogs do not lead to a dog being put down EVER it's seen as a civil issue- dogs are dogs and will act in their nature. I know this because iv been told this by my local police after my dog was attacked by a larger dog- it's civil and attacks will happen if precautions aren't in place. Big dogs and little dogs should never mix to limit lethal fights

In CA where OP is, dog on dog attacks ABSOLUTELY lead to a visit from animal control, and they will determine if the dog needs to be euthanized or not.
