Dog keeps coming in your yard to take a crap.

The rock throw is not a high and tight to get him off the plate that ends up with a dirty look. It's right at the middle of his back for punitive reasons that ends up with a bench clearing brawl.

I voted the deserves it.

Is it a neighbor's dog? If so, I'd say scoop it up with a shovel and send it at the neighbor's house.

You are talking to a group of guys who own guns and go out and kill animals for sport.

I doubt throwing a rock at a dog will ruffle any feathers.

I have never killed a deer, elk, duck or pheasant for sport.

Sport hunting is for bigger animals, like giraffes.

You really aren't a hunter, are you?

Dog's just doing what dogs do. Throw a rock at the owner.

I used to shoot my dog with my bb gun; he begs me to throw rocks at him now.

There's a couple building a gazillion square foot house on the lot behind ours. We met them at a dinner party a couple of weeks ago, and they mentioned that they have four large dogs.

I force a smile and say something like, "wow, you guys must be real animal lovers, huh?"

Then they mention that they're adding two more as soon as they move in.

I'm going to need a lot of rocks.

Will they barricade their premises with a tall, solid vinyl fence like the rest of new homes in the West? If so, then hopefully you'll be safe, but neighbors to a compound.

This is what I recommend.

That's probably what they planned on, but it sounds like they've run out of money and the lender nearly foreclosed on a house that isn't even built yet, so I'm guessing we'll be lucky if we get any fence at all.

You know, normally I'd be judgmental about people stretching their means so far, but then again I'm certain a middle-aged childless couple must have had legitimate need for the extra space that a 5,000 s.f. layout affords.
