What I liked: Every single part of this story!
 I was drawn to this story by your intriguing title. Plus, any story with a dog in it, and I'm there. I think I laughed over every single line of this story. Your humour, your ability to laugh at yourself and the situation, is wonderful. Your narrative voice is warm and light. This all makes it a joy to read.
I love how you refer to this "gang dog" as being tough and "mostly mutt with attitude." That's so funny. I can picture him perfectly. You describe his bandana and the colours being those of the "Crips", and I could just about imagine him with a leather jacket, to boot. I have to say you describe this dog so well. The way he acted, and the way you reacted, is so funny. Your last line, where you say the dog and you, "had ourselves a little understanding" after you were firm with him and told him he was a bad dog. I guess he wasn't quite so tough, after all. The image of him running down the street, garbage bag hanging from his mouth, really made me laugh!
This sentence is hilarious: "The next day I resolved to make Cujo my bitch." I love that. Also, you say you lay in wait with, "a hand on the garden sprinkler system ready to give that demon a good splash up his woo-hoo." And then, you say the dog liked the cooling spray. Oh, my. So funny.
I assume this is a true story. I can imagine my old dog, Alfie, would have rummaged around in our neighbours' bins, had he been able to break free. He was a big fan of rubbish. I can also imagine he would have run away carrying a bag or two in his mouth. This is what makes the story so funny. It is something a lot of us can relate to.
Just a question. Did the dog visit other neighbours, do you know? Or did he hone in one you? Just wondering.
Suggestions: I have no suggestions, I'm afraid. I think your story is perfect as it is.
Parting comments: Oh, Webbie. I enjoyed this story so much. I can imagine your battle with this gang-dog. Both of you trying to outsmart the other. It's just so funny!
