“Dogs welcome inside. Please tie children to post out front” (sign)

“Dogs welcome inside. Please tie children to post out front” is a jocular sign that has been printed on many images. The sign means that the establishment is dog-friendly. The part about children is, one assumes, not to be taken seriously.

Well take a bag of dog biscuits, tie the dog to the desk and leave your child on the post outside.. If anyone asks stick a sign to the door saying dogs welcome please tie children to the post outside (and before I carry on I take that the other person is a kid?) 😛
