Lindy! you have reminded me that we have a ceramic sign we bought in Italy last year that says "Beware of the Cat" - lol lol I must look it out and place it strategically on the gate.

Trouble is of course, Jackson can't read either! )))))

I also thought that "Beware of the Dog" signs were admitting liability for a savage dog.

We had a sign once "Beware of the Cat" if he did not like you he would bit you on the rear end.

Maybe a sign "Please leave the gate open", then everyone will want to close it.:}}

Lol..Jac,

We have a ceramic tile embedded into the wall next to the front gate. A friend of ours hand painted a bulldog's face on it, which she copied from a photo we gave her.

She got the likeness right, a beautiful brindle goofy looking face of our previous bully which makes everyone laugh, so much for scaring people off.

She also painted a portrait in ceramic using four tiles and offered it to OH for his birthday one year. It shows a very mean looking brindle bulldog that has eyes that follows you, nothing at all like our Feiheina.

Lindy ;))))

The only thing my dog would do is give them a bath,perhaps I should have
"BE AWARE OF THE DOG" instead?
If I put please close the gate up the local kids will see it as a challenge (pesky kids!) lol

I was once told that by putting a sign up saying Beware of the Dog that you are admitting you have a vicious dog - probably not true:) How about putting up a sign saying CLOSE THE GATE. You never know it might work:))

Beware of the Dog.
I put a sign on my gate so people know I have a dog which I thought was sensible................ever since no one seems capable of shutting the gate.Think I'll remove it.
