My neighbours dog was fighting with my female pomeranian and hurt her leg. This happened in front of my mom - the dog is totally unafraid of us. Can't really shoot the dog with an actual gun, especially as it's a working dog, so hoping a BB gun will teach it to piss off.
The gun is an airsoft "green-gas" one. I wonder if the airsoft pellets can be swapped out for steel ones or anything? It takes 6mm ammo.

that IS a really bad idea. Unless you're just gonna shoot near it to try to scare it off which may or may not work

I have a BB rifle that you pump up to pressurize. Figure out how many pumps it takes to get the dog's "attention" without actually harming it.
Good idea

How do you catch a dog with a cattle prod?
So if the dog is totally unafraid of you I assumed it wouldn't run off if you got right up to it.. in that case you just jog over and buzz it. Leaves no sign of contact. I use to buzz the fuck out of cattle assholes (..ok not directly on the sphincter, that would be mean and counterproductive). No marks.
With the bb gun you're going to leave welts/marks and your neighbor is going to hate you even if it's legal, which I have no idea about. If it's attacking your dog you probably have the right but idk. If you can find some kind of super powerful nerf gun/ toy bow that would be better.
On a side note though, when I lived with hydro her neighbor actually did shoot at her dogs at least once a week when they'd run onto his property. Don't think he was actually trying to hit one, but he did once. The dog took it surprisingly well. Completely legal too. It's interesting how you're worried about even using a bb gun.
What kind of dog is it anyway? You can probably just scare it off without a gun if you aren't a pussy. It might not relate the gun to the pain and just get angrier anyway. I've scared off coyotes who were circling around me and my 30lb dog. Most canines are scaredy fucks who are not about to fight something multiple times their weight. Some yelling and posturing is all you need. Big stick just in case.
Also isn't the process of training a working dog more regulated there? How is it not socialized to be around other animals.
