Australian-Shepherd-Lovers.com Newsletter #083 Hi Everyone, Aussies tend to be nippers, which comes out of their herding instinct. Naturally, there have been a lot of questions about how to deal with this when it is unwanted and directed at other pets or people. This can be a particularly disconcerting problem when it involves children. It is best to deal with this behavior problem sooner than later and is the topic of our latest article What To Do About Dog Biting And Nipping. Another issue that should be dealt with sooner than later is the decision to get appropriate pet insurance. That's why PetPlan Pet Insurance is the Featured Product this month. You can use our affiliate link to get a quote here. Armed with that information you can decide if getting insurance or having an emergency fund that you manage yourself is the best way to go for you. Don't do it the way I did—having neither and scrambling around for money after a big vet bill hits. A vet once held my dog hostage until I could borrow the money I needed from a family member!
