I plan on contacting my local dog warden. We have very strict regulations on dogs, and the landlord of that house might not even allow pits. I know a lot of home insurances around me don't cover people who own pits.
If you can, get some photos and/or videos of the puppy on your property to show animal control.
We had a similar issue with our neighbors (except several adult dogs coming into our yard). We tried asking nicely, we tried appealing to them as fellow pet owners (don’t want our dogs to hurt each other), we tried yelling.
In the end we had to call the police (no animal control in our area), and the officer asked if we had any photos so he could see which dogs it was.
If you can, get pictures of the dog running unleashed and try to make sure the picturea don't come from an angle that makes it obvious it was taken from your yard.
Taking photos from the street will give you some enhanced credibility and anonymity while also making the authorities think this is more than a neighborly dispute.
Good. I wish you luck!
