I would try all angles....Animal Control, HOA...let them know what happened. See what they have to say first. Unfortunately, my step daughter's yorkie was severely hurt & had to have major surgery. They were in their own yard. The other dog came into their yard & attacked (a large dog). It was a battle in small claims court. She did have witnesses. Other dogs had also been attacked, just like your story. The other owner had to pay vet bills....but it was a major struggle. She drug out having to make the paymts. Long battle!
