[QUOTE="Wisteria Farms, post: 452315, member: 6734"] Well, I hope this doesn't win me any enemies here but... my experience with Australian Shephards has not been good. Its probably a case of the owner not choosing wisely.... Our horse trainer/friend was breaking our young arabian mare for my daughter. Every time I would watch him work her in the round pen or in the arena that Aussie would start "herding" her and nipping at her tail. Can't tell you how many times I just wanted Moony to plant a hoof between his eyes. But, this was their pet and aside from saying "Grady NO!" did nothing. The last straw was when my daughter actually got on Moony and that dog came out...we haven't been back and rarely talk to them any more. They wound up putting the dog down due to his aggressiveness.. he had begun nipping at people. Maybe just a bad apple in the bunch - but its made me not care for the breed. [/QUOTE]
