Tell them to keep it off your property and if it happens again, the ol' "rat poison in a sausage" always works.

Tell them you keep used antifreeze in open containers and that you're worried the puppy might accidentally get into it.
As a person with trashy neighbours who think they own the street, study how they talk to each other when they want something done then talk to them like that.
I tried being civil with my neighbours, but nothing, then one day I had a shitty day and had enough, walked to the edge of my drive, looked directly at their house and screamed " GET YOUR FUCKING SHIT OFF MY SIDE OF THE STREET OR ILL MOVE IT INTO THE FUCKING RIVER!" walked back inside and about 30 minutes later everything was moved, they behave most the time now, but whenever they try shit again I just do the same thing.
If they're also really loud and you can hear general conversations, make sure to repeat something they know they've said, let's them know you know more about them then they do about you.
I am not doing that. I don't want to make enemies of these folks. They've had the cops called on them by a different neighbor once already for a domestic dispute. I have no doubt that they own guns.
It might be easier to build a fence to keep it out if you can't talk to your neighbours and have them listen.
I just got a good portion of my yard fenced in like 3 weeks ago for my dogs. The portion where the birds are has its own fence, but it's only chicken wire. A large adult dog could easily get through it if they really wanted to.
Good fences make good neighbours.
But the question is why do they make good neighbours?
Just ask yourself before you build the the fence what you are fencing in or fencing out.
