I’ve been around dogs all my life, including a noxious few of the two-legged variety.
Here’s a proven recipe for success with those hounds whose owners have neglected their responsibilities:
A firm stance is what is needed, with a slight ‘crazy eyes’ twinkling visage. Make & hold eye contact.
Hold the perimeter, and await for the inevitable exposing of the flanks.
Insert thin edge of wedge.
Apply schwerpunkt.
