get yourself an electrick fence power pack and electrify your beddy . garenteed no dog will piss on your wheels more than once .
My dad used a model T coil for that, had a piece of chain draging on the ground for the earth. Farm dogs never pissed on his wheels more than once and  some seemed to know better that to do it at all.
The model T coil had a set of points on the end that vibrated like a buzzer.
It made sparks, big sparks. 1 1/2"  -->  2"  long sparks. Think of that next time you have a leak.

Fit as many deterents as you can. I have solex locks ready to fit and they are pretty good. Back it up with a good burgler alarm and use a steering lock as well. Next step is a lockout switch on the LT lead so the engine turns over but can't fire, or a cutout switch on the battery cable so nothing works. Then a lockout valve on the fuel line so if they do get it going it'll only run on what's in the carb then die.

But having said all that at the end of the day if they want it they'll find a way of getting it. So the final step is to have good insurance cover.
