I heard dogs barking @3:30 in the a.m., so I looked outside, & there he was standing there while his dog took a big healthy crap in our yard by the road. When I turned on my porch light, he hurried up & walked the dog back into the house. Never even cleaned it up. Should I bag it & set fire to it on his porch?

I would just take a shovle and mush the poo on his door step.

The process might be a long one, or a short one. I would really enjoy the long one, but if you don't need to go any further than the fist step, then the problem is solved. I would start with letting him know that you're observing him from your window or even open the door while the dog is doing his thing... I would also turn on the front porch lights... if you don't have one, get one. That should take care of it... but some cases need some extra push. That's when you greet your neighbor and make a little conversation, if he doesn't take the hint, make sure that you politely remind him to pick up the mess. If others aren't civil, there's no need for you to be a rude person, after all you're a lady and ladies have manners. Shall this fail, then retaliate, and that's when the fun part start: pick it up, get one of those Glad containers, put the crap inside the container, close it and wrap it down in some brown paper and then mail it to him... Did you watched Six Feet Under?

Oh definately. There was a girl that lived in my apartment complex that would just let her dog out the front door and let it walk around the complex to go wherever it wanted and then it would go back and scratch at the door. All us neighbors talked about it since we all clean up after our dogs. So one girl bagged all the poop and it covered the girls front and back porch - like 20 bags of poop.

when I see people out in our apartment complex letting thier dogs poop and not even attempting to pick it up.... I reach out with a plastic bag and say, "do you need this?" just enough embarassment to get your point across. mind you I am normally walking my own dog at the time and have an extra bag on hand. But when we lived in a house.. I would open the door and ask the same thing, it worked.
I like the poop on his porch thing... but dont set it on fire, if the house goes up in flames... you become an arsonist.

You can video tape the dog in your yard and show it to animal control assuming animal control would help you in your corner of the world. I had a similar problem, I asked nicely and politely millions of times for my nasty neighbors to keep their dogs on their property. Then I got stun guns and made sure the nasty neighbors knew I had them. So I told the nasty neighbors that I got stun guns and that if they didn't keep the dogs off my property I would use them. So when the problem continued, I set off the stun gun the second the dogs came near my property. You don't taz the dog, you just set them off and the sound sends even pit bulls running. Suddenly my nasty neighbors remembered their dogs names and where their dogs were supposed to live, and that problem was solved. You will have to check with the laws where you live to see if you can conceal a stun gun, but it was like magic for me. You can't reason with a narcissistic mind, so you have to do something that gets that kind of persons attention.

Oh gosh, I had that same problem with my neighbor. He would walk his dog everyday and then he would stop by my front yard and the dog would do his thing. One day, I took the shovel picked up the crap and layed on his front yard. He never brought the dog to poop on my yard ever again.

yeah that would be pretty cool but i would go knock on his door at 3:30 am and tell him if he lets his dog crap on your yard then u have the right to do the same on his yard. then u can bag it and set it on fire,

go further. set it on fire and then ring his door bell. oh. and then run like hell. i would stay away from your neighbor for a little while, maybe a year or 3. oh and i would get some way of protecting your yard from further invasions. some form of electronic fence, an actual fence or get a nice big dog to scare the other one away...
good luck

How would that correct the problem? You would be stuping to his level and that isn't cool. It isn't his dogs fault, it's his fault and maybe you could talk to him and have him stop. If it doesn't work talk to your local humane society or animal control (not to have the dog taken) and see if there is anything you can do...Good luck to you and I am sorry to hear about that. I always carry little "poopy bags" with we on our walks-thankfully I havent had to use them often :)

If you do that you will only start a war with your neighbor. I would ask my neighbor politely to please keep his dog out of my front yard. If he disregards my request, I would set up a motion detector to turn on a bright spotlight and a loud siren, so the dog will not feel comfortable taking a dump there.

If your neighbor is approachable, then mention that if his dog relieves himself in your yard, that you would appreciate him picking up the waste with and throwing it away.
If he is not approachable, you can use a shovel and toss the poop back into his yard.
