I'm sorry to hear that you're having this problem! Having neighbor dogs that don't get along with your dog can be very frustrating. From what you're describing, it sounds like the only really reliable solution here would be to put up a fence to keep the neighbor's dogs out. If they are consistently trespassing on your property and attacking your dog in your yard, you can also call your local animal control office to report this - they should be able to fine the owner for not keeping his dogs under control, or even confiscate the dogs if this continues to happen. For your part, I would make sure that you take Sam out on a leash at all times unless you have a fence, so that he can't trespass on your neighbor's property and get into fights.
