Neighbor lets dogs out to do their business in my yard?

[pmsmechanic]

I had a friend who had troubles with cats taking a dump in his garden. There was a convenient hole in the window screen that a pellet gun was poked through just when the cat was staining. Worked every time. He didn't kill them but they found easier places to leave their deposits. This might work for dogs too.

I was also thinking of a thorough colon cleansing, perhaps a bit of Pumpkin pie filling and non dairy almond milk perhaps could be in store..

I gave my dog some of the almond milk once before bed(nasty stuff and didn't taste like almonds, no way, no how).

How he was able to get poo on the wall down the hall over his head is beyond me... Its some really bad stuff for a dog for sure and never saw anything like it..

Try a Bear Banger a few times.

In town you call animal control.
In the country you go knock on their door and politely tell them dead dogs don't shi$t, consider yourself warned.

Just remember the three S's (shoot - shovel- shut up)

From a dispute resolution standpoint, the only way to resolve this is with a direct, yet docile conversation either face to face or over the phone. Sometimes the phone works better if someone is unusually shy. Plus, a phone call gives an air of superiority to it in that the person on the other end can't size you up or dress you down.

Ideas that involve flaming poo make great conversation over a beer but in practice will not turn out well and you could wind up being the villain. I would go with a calm yet direct conversation that states your issues and concerns and ask that he remedy the situation by telling you how he is going to fix the problem. After all, it IS his problem and only he can fix it.

If that doesn't work I would contact the animal control officer and ask him to fix the problem. Let it then be his problem because that is what his job and areas of expertise are. He has been down this road plenty of times.

Fences make for great neighbors believe it or not. Might sound odd but it really does work.

I think that was covered on the first page of this thread.

I would go talk to them one more time. Then the gut pile and/or almond milk method for sure.

Fix the problem with the neighbors and leave punishing and torturing the dog out of it.
