Neighbor's dog keeps climbing up on my deck

So I've got one of those neighbors...you know, crap all over the yard, mangey mut that craps in my yard, old beat up truck that he is "restoring", but never seems to figure out how to install the muffler.

Today, I had some really stinky garbage (courtesy of my 1yr old) that I had to get out of the house. I didn't have time to run it to the garage, so I set it on the deck. I came back later to find dog prints in the dirt and the garbage bag ripped up and garbage all over the deck.

No big deal, dogs will be dogs.

SO, what should I do to scare this little fvcker next time he comes to my deck?

My first thought was to make a suicide cord (extension cord cut off with the bare conductors exposed) and put some peanut butter or something on the wires...but my wife said I might get sued...hehe. Now I'm thinking of rigging up a car horn to a motion sensor.

Any ideas??

that's coming this spring after the ground thaws out...until then....

It's mostly to scare the neighbor too, as he stands out there and smokes when the dog does his business.

Yeah check out the bull tazer vid that's floating around. Just make sure you get inside before it has a chance to get back up again.

I would headbutt the dog. Chances are you will both scream really loud in each other's ear and he probably won't come back.

if you are there to witness the dog, a can with some coins in it, throw it at him or shake it, after a few times he wont come back.

My wife brought up a good point. Put some food out there that will make the dog puke or_shit all over inside their house

maybe put out a dish of antifreeze...
Just call animal control, they will ticket the owner for their animal "running at large"

My neighbors dogs were always barking. So I took a water hose and hosed them down. Now the dogs are afraid of me. All I have to do is look at them and they cower and stfu.

A bar of chocolate + something messy like spaghetti would make a hell of a mess when he barfs/sh!ts all over the neighbor's carpet later. Not that I am recommending you do that or anything. I knew someone whose dog got into that sort of culinary combination once. He learned to keep it out of reach after that...
