My parents insurance like quadrupled when they installed a pool. They put in chain link fence around the entire backyard (nearly an acre), put locks on all three gates, and the "No Trespassing" signs. Still, if someone were to get hurt, they know full well that none of those precautions will prevent a suit.
We had to put up Beware of Dogs signs on our fence because our dogs are around 50lbs. Those are considered "dangerous" so we had to have the signs. One is an Aussie Shepard mix (if you have food, he couldn't care less what you steal) and the other is a choc lab mix (hello - can I be your bestest friend?) - yeah, dangerous for sure
What a crazy world!!
