did the dog die ?

No, the dog beat a hasty retreat and actually outran the Leopard fairly easily.
There's a video available somewhere if you search for it, I'm sure you can track it down.

On a lovely lazy afternoon as we were aimlessly wandering around a silent forest, we chanced upon a cow that must have strayed into the forest. It was near a dried pond and we simply waited around as it was some leopards territory. We were not too hopeful. Our driver pointed us towards the trees saying he could see a leopard that was looking at us. We could see no such thing. Then he saw its tail move, we again saw nothing. And then the leopard moved in the bushes and finally we saw him. We thought the leopard was looking at us, but he was focused on the cow and we were positioned between both of them so we moved back. All of us in the gypsy were 100% sure that the leopard would not attack the cow but we moved back to see what the leopard intended doing. It disappeared for a while and we left the place to see if he had gone to any nearby. waterhole. There were calls in the forest denoting the movement of leopard, but we saw nothing, and so came back to the original place. The cow had barely moved. We parked our gypsy at a safe distance and kept watch. Within 5 minutes the leopard had geared up and attacked the cow. The cow managed to shoo him off, bewildered, but what an amazing moment it was!!
