Q: Hi my neighbor is feeding my dog through the fence. They are putting food next to the fence so my dog digs and claws.

A: Talk to your neighbor and ask them to stop.

If they refuse, you can build a tall sturdy opaque fence and plant shrubs with thorns and thick roots along the property line or build a dog run on the opposite side of your yard.
