Chickens and pigs fix everything.
We can't have pigs here though, not zoned for it (I actually wanted pygmy goat lawnmowers but they can jump), and perhaps the biggest problem is the puppy is a pig dog (and also the scourge of chickens).
I always want to let people off with "heart's in the right place" but as I've gotten older and grumpier I want their brain to be in the right place too x_x
