Those signs perhaps were put up to save the dogs from people. Also, even if you see a tiny pooch behind a sign like that you a) do not know how he reacts to stragers b) do not know if there isn't a bigger and perhaps a dangerous second dog around. So as funny as the signs seem to be, take them for consideration. Many are a joke, sure, but then you'll stumble upon one that wasn't...
The only danger is probably some ppl who trying to scam you. I have experience it when I was a kid. My grandpa dog are overprotective and will bark at any passerby. One day a stranger walk by our yard and claiming that my dog has bit him, so my grandpa demand proof of where he was bitten. Good thing is that guy can't proof it, but he keep being stubborn and I forget how it end since my mom tell me to go inside. All I know is that everything end well. After that incident my grandpa have to put the Beware of Dog sign.

These kinds of posts need a disclaimer! Sorry you had to learn the hard way.

Much better to put a 'Do Not Trespass' sign. Does the same thing for your protection and doesn't give a lawyer a leg to stand on as far as your dog is concerned. Many a payout happened because of a 'Beware of Dog' sign worked against a client.
I looked into this to see if the rules applied in the UK (I don't know where you are from) and it does - so I'm taking the sign down (that admittedly came with the house!). Thanks for letting us know about this.
