Do you live by a busy street?? next time the dog is in the back
yard... alone.... open up the gate and let it run free... may be it
likes to play chatch so toss a ball across the busy street just as a
car comes.. and let another poor chap kill the stupid thing and then
just run in to your house.. or say you saw the whole thing happen..:D

depending on were u live, once a dog attacks a human it has to be put
down, so all you really have to do is stir it up until it bites you,
then call the police.

heylady,

I don't have an answer for you, just a comment.  Please ignore the 3
comments above, they are not legal, moral, or ethical.  Also, I'd like
to state that all three commenters are NOT Google Answers Researchers.
 You can spot us because our names are clickable, like mine.

I sincerely hope you get an answer, and no more "comments" ...

Why not buy the dog from your neighbor and have it put down?

My above comment was ment as a sarcistic joke. This heylady person
want's to know how to "get rid of" (probably kill) what is most likely
an deeply loved and cared for member of someone eles's family. I have
a pet, and I would be extreamly pissed and sad if one of my neighbors
decided to "dispose" of her for some reason. I cerently hope heylady
doesn't recieve an answer to this question unless it is to have a
civilized conversion with the owner of the dog.

If may be that this dog is an uncontrolable menace to the
neighborhood, in which case, a call to animal control would be
appropriate. I believe there are laws regarding dangerous animals. But
it could just as easly be that heylady has a gruge aginst the
neighbors or just doesn't get along whith this particularl dog. Either
way, it's no excuse for this kind of unnieghborly behevor.

I do aggree that b4wls_deal3r's and buhbow's comments are absolutly
not legal, moral, or ethical, as you say.

The person who owned my home before I purchased it - disposed "of
annoying neighbors dog".  If you want to be the most hated person in
your neighborhood disposed "of annoying neighbors dog".  They (all
your neighbors) will know who did it, and hate you for it.

If the dog is a problem call the police and let them take care of it.

My wife used to walk our dog, on the walk there was a pitbull that was
allowed to run in it's front yard.  He was a barker, very aggressive
and the yard was not fenced.  He was held back by a hidden ele. fence.
 The dog was very scary.

I reported the dog.  The owner did a few things to restrain the dog. 
I did not think it was enough.  Now does it matter that I didn't think
it was enough?  No.  I left it up to the police to decide.  I reported
the problem again.  The police went out and talked to the owner. 
After a few calls from me, the dog was put into the backyard and the
problem was solved.

The reason for success had to do with public safety.  Kids would walk
by there to and from school.  My wife walked by with our dog.  And the
dog in question, was very aggressive.  It was clear to the police that
there MAY be a problem if the dog got into the street.

As to your problem, if the dog's a barker - during the day - when he
sees you - then make friends with the dog by giving him treats.  Most
dogs are built to love people.  Make friends with him and learn to
enjoy his "barks" for love and attention. Most dogs only want to be
loved.  Give that to them and you will have a friend for life.

If he barks at night and keeps you up - report him.  And let the
police take care of it.

Do not take care of this yourself.  Your neighbors may not be "that" friendly.

I have heard of people suing there neighbor to stop certain behaviors
that are annoying when the police would not help out.

It's good to keep in mind that the real problem is probably not the
dog, but the neighbors themselves. Dogs that bark incessantly or
behave aggressively are often suffering from abuse or neglect. If you
"dispose of" the dog, the neighbors are quite likely to get another
dog, and you'll have to dispose of that dog, too. Or, if the neighbors
figure out that you got rid of their dog, they may try to dispose of
you.

Almost all towns and cities have ordinances that deal with animal
nuisances. Contact the proper authorities. Taking drastic action on
your own is a lose/lose situation: it is unfair to the dog and to the
neighbors, and it may have unpleasant legal consequences for you.

Ummm I know this post is kinda old but I have a problem with my
neighbor's dog. I live a few miles out of the city limits so there
isn't any ordinances about dogs running around. The neighbor's dog has
attacked my dog several times. The neighbor's dog is twice as big as
mine. My dog is about the size of a beagle and the neighbor's dog is
an alaskan malamute. The neighbor's dog is also a lot younger. It is
about 3 or 4 years old and my dog is 9 years old. So it can beat up my
dog easily. The last attack it tore a good chunk out of my dog's ear
and it went for my dog's throat. Luckly a member of my household was
there to save my dog. The neighbor's dog also steals stuff from my
house. Like shoes. I know it steals stuff because we might occasionlly
find 1 of the shoes it stole in the neighbor's yard. One day it sole
brand new $40 shoes. The neighbor's also know that it attacks my dog
cause they watched it happen. The police probbaly won't do anything
because we live several miles out of the city limits. So what could I
do? They can't even catch their own dog but they feed it. So its
theirs and it is running all over the place.
