    What if they have a purpose for coming on the property? Meter reading, making a delivery, mail carrier, bill collector (just kidding ), but there are many legitimate reasons for "strangers" (to the dog anyway) to be on your property.

    But if someone does come on your property and get bitten, if you have a sign, can you say "I told you so" or "I warned you." You did give them fair warning that you had a dog.

    (Sorry for bringing this off-topic but... ) My friend got sued because someone broke into her house during the day, and got attacked by her dog. When she got home, the dog had the man locked in the closet onconsious from loss of blood. And the dog had two of the mans fingers in it's mouth.

    Talk about a good guard dog, though, Eh? Still, the man broke into her house, it's hardly more than he deserves. I don't understand how people get sued when someone comes into their house and gets attacked. She did have a "beware of Newfoundland dog" sign. This man was *supposably illiterate. But you'd think a sign with a large dog on it would have clicked?

    (Again, sorry )
