you are so right, animals deserve to have their own fate, no matter what stupid people like them think
As the offended non-dog owner, you have very little recourse. The police that are interested in helping you have their hands tied by having to witness the behavior, issue 900 warnings, etc. City laws may or may not support you, but they are hardly enforced, and when existing, barely enforcable.
In short, you are screwed.
The only recourse is to take it into your own hands.
1. If they let them run around loose, trap them in a cage. Most cities allow this specifically, and if they don't, they dont' disallow it specifically. If it has tags, take it to the police. If it doesn't, take it to the pound. If you aren't squeamish, take it to the woods.
2. If they are simply untrained, uncared for, etc., like most chronic barking dogs, you have to accept that they are quite insane. They have been robbed of the social structure they are evolved to exist in. That may take the form of hyperaggression, it may be clawing and whining all day...
In any case, they have grown past their formative years without proper socialization. They may be redeemable. They may not, or there may be no opportunity to, given the attitudes of an owner that would allow them to progress to this state. What to do here is a matter for your conscience to decide.
If you are comfortable with putting them out of their misery (and your own) poison them with common household items, not deadly poisons. Without a witness or any traceable evidence (like a credit card purchase for rat poison) the cops may know you did it, but the same hands that were tied in dealing with the dog owner are now tied in dealing with you.
Don't do this with a friend. Don't tell your kids or spouse. Don't tell ANYONE. Just do it.
What you are going to do is make a big hunk of toxic food that looks like a piece of dog feces. It will contain several toxins, each in itself maybe just short of enough to kill, but the entire toxicological mess of a cocktail will wreck its system quickly. It will not be painless (most poisons aren't), but it will be relatively quick.
Raisins, lots of them. cut them dice them, smash them with a rolling pin. Make a paste.
Parmesan cheese from your local pizza joint. Several packets. This makes an easily discernible smell for the dogs to find. It also adds a grainy texture that adds to your turd's realism.
Corn starch. Not much. Its a binder, keeps everything stuck together.
Caffeine pills and ibuprofen. If the ibuprofen is coated, scrape off the coating - you don't want traces of it in the food - it gives away the brand. Smash those all together into a very fine powder, no chunks. Dosage depends on dog weight (info is online everywhere).
Powdered cocoa. Discolors everything brown (obvious) and is toxic already to dogs. If you want to throw in some unsweetened baker's chocolate, all the better. The amount required for toxicity is quite a bit (also online).
Mix the powders.
Knead the raisin paste, cheese and baker's chocolate if you used it.
Knead in the powders. You will likely need to sprinkle a little water in it to make it workable.
In less than a minute you will have the consistency of a wet dog poop. If the color isn't quite right, roll it in a little more cocoa powder, but make sure it 'soaks in' rather than powders it. Make it look real. You aren't going to fool the dog - you need to fool the owner. (Chances are, he's not the type to clean up the dog poo anyway).
PUt it out there anytime, particularly if the dogs are inside and he's not thinking about his yard. Create a front yard distraction if you are worried about it. A pack of firecrackers should do it. If you must throw it to get it in the yard, freeze it first. That way it won't break apart midflight or on impact. At the slightest thaw the dogs will smell it and hone in. They'll even fight over it.
Enjoy your next few nights of sleep. It may not end there. There will likely be an aftermath.
Your neighbor that doesnt' care for his dogs is probably a 'real piece of work' to put it as nicely as I can. He might jack with you. He'll probably get 2 more puppies and leave them locked in the yard for the rest of their lives, mostly just to get back at you. Are you prepared for this? Can you really keep poisoning all these animals?
Learn the few tricks for lying without looking like you're lying. The cops know how to spot dishonesty - you should too. In a verbal confrontation, even your neighbor will know on a subconscious level if you're lying to him. Give him the visual, verbal, and expressive cues that you are telling truth, and he will have this 'feeling' that you aren't full of it.
Buy your supplies in cash, in a store you don't frequent, and don't use the brand that you might normally use. If they wanted to go after you for real, they will use your ownership of the base materials as circumstantial evidence. But what house doesn't have ibuprofen? You don't look suspicious if you have it, but the evidence is no good if you have a different brand.
I give the information in the hopes you don't have to resort to it, that you may have the patience to deal with it given the possible backlash, but also realizing that you may have no other choice and I despise the idea that good people are hogtied from fighting back against bad people. My grandfather lived in a small town, and told me that when he was growing up if anyone got out of line the old folks had a talk' with them. If that didn't work, or it was particulary egregious, they torched the offenders house and ran them out of town. It only had to happen twice as he recalled. I don't believe that would be good practice either, but we've swung too far the other way. Fight back with the law if you can, outside it if you can't.
