Cajunman, as practical advice the only really effective way to deal with loose neighbor dogs is to fence your own property well enough that the dogs can't get onto your property. There is generally no reasoning with the people who think their dogs have the right to run loose and pets are an area where it is better to avoid arguments.
Buy large bags of cheap dog biscuits and start dispensing them. Train the local dogs to think of you as a treat dispenser and not a chew toy.
Keep smiling. Be pleasant. Plant fruit trees and share. Be careful to not set foot on neighbor's property unless you have been invited.They might not be your friends but you don;t want them to decide you are an enemy. If they are the moonshiner, you don't want them to get it into their heads that you are the revenuer.
As a generalization, I have no objection to taking a few photos for a new neighbor without a paypal contribution. after all, if the property is located on my way, the new owner is going to be my neighbor and a few photos isn't much to ask.
Photos of bare land are never going to show much. You'll get a picture of a few scruffy trees.
