A 40lbs or more dog. I'm not a big fan of people chaining their dogs up, but a < $5 screw in the yard post and a < $5 20ft tiedown chain and a $0-whatever you want to spend on a dog will solve your problem.

Using "less than lethal" rounds out of a firearm will still be considered deadly force. Yes, in some states it is perfectly legal to shoot someone on your property that has "No Trespassing" signs posted, especially if it's after dark, but people have been sent to prison for it in those states as well.

If you're not a dog person, put up a fence. Even the most expensive fence will be cheaper than spending a few years in prison. And if it's legal in your area, put up an electric fence.

Believe it or not, there are many times when the use of a firearm is not the best choice. Above all keep asking your local LE what you should do, eventually you'll get a good answer.
