I am glad you started this thread, because I wanted to hear more about this, but didn't want to take Riptide's thread too off-topic.

This was my big question. As far as legal liability, does that sign make a difference? (I had a foster that bit someone once and someone suggested I get a sign, I wasn't comfortable with doing that because of the reasons the insurance agent stated). Ginger would never bite anyone (I don't think), but she is very good a posturing, and delivery people knock on my door then move back by my neighbor's steps when I answer the door. I am afraid that it would make her look vicious if I put the sign up, and she really really is not.

Any way, Johanna, any other attorney? Does this sign make a difference legally?
