Yes, I can buy commercial repellent, but one of the
sites says that capsicum (sp?) is the main ingredient
in some repellents.

I am seeing a similar problem in my back yard. Because of fences,
walls, and a gate with only 2 inches of clearance from a concrete walk,
no dogs are responsible. I suspect a raccoon, against which a large
Havahart trap would likely be effective. I suspect the usual scented
repellents will not be effective since raccoons are omniverous.
