I have a sign on my fence that reads " We can make it to the fence in 3 seconds, can you?" There is a silhouette of a GSD on the sign. I don't think of this as a threat but, rather, as a caution. They would have to go through 2 gates to get to where the dogs are. No one has attempted this yet, and hopefully won't. I don't believe my dogs would bite but they would certainly give them a good barking.
