Can I shoot my neighbour's dog?

I might be wrong, but I don't think the fencing is as much of an issue as lack of training of the dog.

A fence would sort the issue for the OP though, and then it's up to the owner to decide whether to train the dog or not.

Can you catch the little !!!!!! and hand him in anonymously as a stray to the council dog warden. If it happens a couple of times and they have to keep paying to get him back, they might keep him under control in future.

I haven't read the rest of the thread, but we have 2 collies next door to our horses and they are forever getting onto our land and rounding up the horses, in spite of their boundaries being sheep-netted. We have spoken to the neighbours, written to them and haven't got anywhere (apart from this, on a few occasions, I have been chased up the road by one of the dogs, on horseback (me, not the dog obv ). I have decided that next time one of them ventures onto our property, I will hand him in to the dog warden...and repeat, until neighbours get tired of picking their dog up.

I do feel sorry for the dogs- they are collies, they are bored and owners haven't bothered to train them
