Quoted message said:Dear Marco, this was my tactic for a long time. I would yell species
specific epitaphs and tell the dog that I would kill it loud enough to rouse
the owner. Eventually I tired of this method because while it felt good the
first few times it took a lot of energy and did not really control the dogs
or the owners.
Actually a variant of this can be quite effective. You simply yell "LAWSUIT!"
at the top of your lungs over and over. Since dogs defend their property the
owner is likely in a nearby house and will hear it. The last time I did that
the dog has never been loose as I have gone to work since. It certainly didn't
hurt that it was at 0600 (AM) when all was quiet.
