Let the owners know animal control told you it was ok to shoot the dogs, if they complain. There is always pepper spray, and that would give the owners some work to do. Once it becomes more of a pain to let the dogs loose than to keep them in the yard, the owners might alter their behavior.
This was the only thing that deterred a large mean dog in our neighborhood, in a rural area, that the owners refused to keep fenced. The dog learned to stay on his side of the road, even though he continued to growl at us.

You could say the same about people who let their chickens run loose
