I've never had that problem, and neither has my evil ex-neighbor.  One call and Animal Control was there.  It was a bogus call, but they did their job.  I also speak to my reps and assembly folks.  Sometimes it gets things done and sometimes it doesn't.  I suppose that if you're willing to spend time on it, you could let them know you'd like the law changed.  But if you don't believe you can make a difference, then don't bother.
