Squirt the dog with a water soaker having first added brightly coloured dye to the water.

To achieve what?

I guess it would demonstrate to the neighbour that it was indeed THEIR dog who had just done his business outside his 'proper' territory. 

I would argue that squirting any animal with dyed water would be received as a sign of aggression by the owner and do absolutely nothing to resolve the situation or neighbour relationships.

Note that I neither suggested nor endorsed the idea.

Blowing up a minor irritant into a full blown feud is exactly what I want to avoid.  Besides my last dog absolutely loved playing with water.  This one might too.  Besides it’s scarcely her fault that her owners don’t supervise her.

'how do you deter dogs from peeing and pooping in your garden'  into Google search....

Google search shows deterrants - whether they are applicable to your situation is up to yu but some look worth a try

'Twas never suggested that you had.

My comment was squarely aimed at the rcomment by eldamar.
