Oh doggy misdeeds & murder!
Not gardening for sure but how obsessive can you get! At least gardening can't be considered murder! (Although I do get rather peeved when my dogs think the salad bed is just there to cool their tummies)!

ahh yes, the peaceful world of gardening.
If only I could remember the name of that TV program a few years back that showed the 'falling out's of neighbouring plot holders..
Never been any hint of sabotage of garden exhibits, or potential exhibits, at shows up and down the country either of course.
Never been a case of gnome abduction and ransom.
In July 2000 it was reported in national press that a Powys man was shot dead over a Leylandii hedge dispute.
In 2003 a man was arrested, following a three hour siege, after allegedly shooting his neighbour over a hedge and lawn boundary dispute. The accused was found hanging in a prison three days later.
Noooo westi, murder never comes about as a result of gardening.
It's such a genteel pastime. nothing obsessive about it at all

Brock gets a right old tough deal of it at times.
But then would I want a badger sett on my plot, probably not but I would at least go about getting the problem solved in a better way than diy.
Having said that would Mr Brock & family want to sett (sic) up home on our site anyway, probably not as far to much human activity & scent I suspect
The picture in the link you posted Peter doesn't look like a well cultivated area of the site
