If you should find an independent source of coverage, please share and I'll do the same. I took a look at the dog bite stats that someone linked to. It was surprizing to see the higher number for GSD and GSD mixes but I think statistics in a vacuum can be misleading. They have to be expressed as a percentage of that particular breed's population to make any sense, IMHO. I am really shocked, though, that there is no specialty insurance. I used to scuba dive alot and I could find industry-specific insurance for that. With the shear numbers of dog owners in the US who have no problem with their dogs but who might want to be protected, it seems like some company would jump on this kind of insurance! Heck, everyone dies but you can get life insurance. :-)
