Here you put a sign on the gate as wolfi said. This protects you to some extent as you have warned people.
In England you do not put a sign on the gate because that shows that you know your dog bites and so increases your liability should anything happen.

I have a 14 year old Beagle who is now blind and has a cancerous tumor on her side that is growing. She is not yet suffering pain but when she does I will have her PTS.
