Seriously, don't hurt the dog. It's not it's fault. It's just doing what is natural for it. It's the owner's responsibility, don't make the dog suffer for their inconsideratness.

If I were you, the first thing I would do is approach the dog owner. If they were obstinant and wouldn't take him inside, then I would check into the local noise ordinances. The dog barking is constantly is probably considered noisy and disruptive. I would act legally against the owner.

The other option is polling your neighbors and gathering a support group for legal or peer pressure action.

Again, dogs bark instinctively, and the owner is the being that is responsible for the dog, and therefore, it's bark.
