Anything I can apply to my yard to keep dogs from crapping/ peeing in it?

I have a couple neighbors who I have spoke with( politely) my wife even put a little sign in our yard and never fails pretty much every other day I find dog crap in my yard.
I don't have dogs, I don't want dogs, my young kids play in yard and I don't want to deal with dog crap in yard.

I'm honestly at the point i don't even care if it harms the dog. If dogs owners are that inconsiderate it's on them.

Any suggestions??

TIA

Bet his HOA won't allow a front yard fence.

Yeah don't want not could I have a front yard fence.

A sling shot and a less than lethal ammo of your choice.


Maybe shoot their poo back at them.

Set up cameras in the area they're going in and find out who the dog/owner is and go confront them.

Or...

My dad would pop dogs and cats in our yard with a BB gun all of the time.

Is it not a law in Texas that an owner must pickup after his dog on private property?
Pretty sure it is

If it continues a nice bowl of antifreeze in your driveway should do the trick.

Are there any laws against speeding?

I get that .. but you also get pulled over and fined for speeding.

If said neighbor receives a citation and a fine for his dog crapping in neighbors yard he may stop

Same for the other end of the leash?

If you've spoken politely to the offending pet owners and have definitive evidence those same folks are continuing and blatantly ignoring your request (game cam or security cam footage) I would carefully figure out where they live, shovel their dog's business up and carry or drive it over to their house, park in the street, and pitch it into their front yard. It would be a bonus if someone from the offender's home was there to witness the return of their dog's BM. And BTW I would not be a jerk about it, I'd just smile and wave at them and say something like "your dog left something over in my front yard, just wanted to return it to you. Have a great day!" and head home.

Definitely talking to the owners is a first step. I agree with the person who suggested non-lethal means. I've know of people advocating the murder of dogs on a first offense. There are some sick folks out there who think that makes them seem badas_ instead of pathetic and mentally ill. If a dog is chasing a calf there is much more information needed. What is the size of the dog and calf? Is the calf in imminent physical danger? Does the dog have a history of injuring animals or people? Is the dog's owner known and have attempts to resolve this been tried? Of course if serious harm is taking place then lethal means may be called for. I'd just think twice before shooting a dog with a firearm if it's merely annoying and this is a first or second offense because the owner may decide an eye for an eye if their dog is killed without absolute necessity. Is risking your life worth it?

This. I sling that **** right back into their yard after having talked to them multiple times already.

I'll make that ***** wish it never had explosive diarrhea

Put the poo in a small paper sack. At about 9PM place the bag on the offending owner's porch and light it on fire. Ring the door bell. Once they stomp out the bag in their house shoes, you'll feel pleasantly vindicated.
You're welcome.

I agree. Lethal options should be reserved for cases of imminent harm to others or other animals. For example, if the dog is trying to injure a child or person, is trying to kill another animal (example a calf on a ranch), someone else's pet, etc.

DNA test? Surely that's a joke.

Call ther fire department! This one's outta control

T-post with a game camera mounted on it. You can also put your "no pooping" sign there.

I like the bag and door ring approach, I also like the throwing it back, but why not just pull a trick from "Me, Myself, and Irene " and after your morning coffee, go to your neighbors yard and drop a #2?

He called the **** poop!!!

I think I read this here years ago...

Pour bacon grease on the dog poop knowing the dog will eat it and later will be giving the owner "kisses" when they get home.

Pepper the yard. Make em sneeze
