Typically there are bylaws for poopie pick up as well. Write a formal letter to the HOA, if there's no follow up then write a letter and leave a copy at each persons step. Nothing still, notify bylaw services and let them know what's going on and they can follow up with the owners.
If the people still don't get the message after being told directly a couple of times in that process, then you make their dogs disappear and leave a note indicating where they can pick up the pups, ie animal shelter.

Unfortunately, this may not apply if this is considered private property and the city has no control over it.
Still, the video would be good ammo with whatever organization is responsible for maintaining the cleanliness of the complex.

how does the OP know which owner is responsible for not cleaning up after their dog(s)? Vid surveillance, directly witnessing, or 2nd hand account?
I would have a real problem with vigilante justice if it's directed at an innocent party.

Next time you see it happen. Take a camera and start taking pictures of it so the owner sees you. If they ask you what you're doing, just say, "Evidence" and wave.
It'll scare them from doing it again and you will also have evidence.

Keep complaining to the HOA. The HOA from my last place were pretty good about informing the residents about the common areas. Not picking up dog poop is a pet peeve (no pun intended) of mine. I always carry bags in my back pocket. Good luck.

Heres perfectly and legal revenge.
Get some bacon grease and pour it on the dogs business, just be sure to keep your dog away afterwards. Soon the neighbors dog will return and smell the bacon grease on its own poo and then eat it up!
After afew days or weeks, the dog will be conditioned to this and turn around and eat its shit steaming fresh and then go home and give its owner shitty fresh doggy kisses.
Safe, humane and legal.
