On a similar bit of doggy meyhem. I was beseiged by a dog who would knock over the trash cans and would spread the garbage all over the yard. Bungee cords were not an option as the city workers would not touch them.
Something to do with the fact that one dumbass garbage collector was dicking around with one and ended up almost Darwining himself our of the gene pool when the thing wrapped around his neck and hooking into the flesh. So due to his jackassery, we can't dog proof our cans anymore.
So one day I'm digging through the boxes in the garage and I find the old box for the electric fence power supply. The Cattle Strength electric fence. The deter 1500 pounds of angry pot roast fence.
Getting a really evil idea, I line the can with some gridded wire mesh and hook up the box. I also plug the extension cord to the outlet controlled by the switch next to the front door.
Garbage day comes and I set the trap. Sure enough Admiral Barky Von Schnauser trots down the road and I see him coming. I wait next to the switch.
As per his usual, the dog knocks over the can and walks headfirst into the can. As he gets partly in he lifts his leg and fires off a nice stream. Being evil I flipped the switch.
Now just to let you know...this kind of electric fence isn't strong enough to hurt a dog of that size. I used to play with the live wire on the farm when I was a 5-year old and far lighter than that dog was. I'm thinking Mastif by the way the body shape is...so big dog. This will not hurt the dog...much more than the initial surprise and I'm sure I beat his pride within an inch of it's life...but other than that I assure you that the dog was fine.
Now as I said, this is a big dog. Big enough than any time it goes face first into the can, it has to back out since the dog is that big. Normally. This time however when the stream hit the wire, he went in head first and came out head first. The only way for that dog to have been able to do that by my calculations would be for the dog to go into it's own mouth and come out it's ass.

I go out and remove the power leads before the garbage collectors get there. Next week's pickup and the dog comes back. He tips over the can three houses away, the can two houses away, the neighbor's can, tucks it's tail between it's legs and walks to the other side of the streat away from my can, knocks over the other neighbor's can, etc, etc.
I win.
