Default Neighbor's Dog Uses my Yard as Personal Toilet

Is there legal recourse to this issue.... We have owned our house since 2019 and have had wonderful neighbors. In January of this year, after a neighbor behind us passed, his house sold. The new neighbors continually let their dog out to come poop in my yard. I have respectfully asked them to keep the dog in their yard but it isn't happening. I have walked in dog poop more times than I can count and am tired of it. I have cameras in the back of my house so I have video. I am curious if there is anything that can be done? They have the whole front of their house and they could take the dog out to the front of their house but they don't. It is not just the dog who is in my yard they come in my yard as well when they let the dog out. BTW their property is not in deed compliance but I have never filed a complaint because I have always gotten along well with my neighbors but my patience is wearing thin. Any thoughts?
