BB guns?

Not sure of the laws, but there has been a dog roaming my neighborhood periodically that I would like to teach to stay off my property by stinging his butt with BBs. Is that legal?

Woah there Tex. No, you would end up in jail for animal cruelty....maybe for a very long time, AND have to pay vet bills too. This is frigin MASSACHUSETTS...remember!

MAYBE if they made some sort of rubber bullet...like they use to scare off bears, that would fitt in a pellet gun?

Two posts since 2012 and one is reviving an 11 year old thread? It just cracked me up.

well yeah, the OP shot the dog, and just got out of jail now in 2017, and revived the thread.
 
I think you shooting a dog with a bb gun is a good way to get yourself thrown in jail.
Let the animal control handle it.

If a neighbor shot my dog, it would be outright WAR... Just saying...

Talk to the owner... Talk to animal control... But do NOT shoot the dog!

Spray the dog with the garden hose! But do not physically harm the dog.
