i want to ask all of you, if you had been my neighbor and seen someone trying to break into my garage, what would you have done??
I would have called the police. I'm not sure about confronting the kid, maybe, maybe not.

Security, reinforced doors, and a dog (or two) sounds like what you need.

I do understand how frustrated you are. But be careful about how you react with taking a firearm outside of your house and using it to confront someone. We don't want you to get arrested. Please let us know how things turn out.

Even getting a dog and letting him guard the yard will likely end in lawsuits if someone gets bitten - trespassing or not. The courts will look even LESS favorably on the dog owner if the trespasser is a neighbor!
Maybe so, but he's got to do something. Of course, he'd need to build a high fence, post beware of dog signs, and make sure that those dogs can't escape from the yard and house. But the dogs will certainly help convince his fine neighborhood friends that they might want to look elsewhere for their fun.
