I cannot imagine committing to buy a puppy without seeing the animal and if possible the sire and dam. OTOH, a rescue (or adoption of an older dog) is a different thing. My last two Basenjis came to me sight unseen, and turned out to be wonderful dogs, but the breeders I got them from wanted to place their dogs in an experienced Basenji home, and I only paid the cost of getting the dogs to me. One came by air, one was personally transported to me by his breeder. If she hadn't been happy with what she found I expect she would have taken him back with her when she left. I also had to commit to return him if ever I couldn't keep him. Good breeders care about where their dogs end up.

Wow. This horse dances better and has more rhythm than my husband
{You'll note there's no "LOL" or smiley after that because I am dead serious.
Ever see "the jerk"? yeah . . . } -
They are quite amazing aren't they? You would be surprised how many Basenji Breeders came from a horse background…. and how much we think these guys are like horses.. in looks and movement...

That was beautiful. I had horses growing up and I couldn't train them to do anything. We just rode them.

Unbelievable. I too, have a horse background. They never cease to amaze me. I had watched Anky's a while back, but that one is just stellar. Thanks for sharing that one, in particular.

That was spectacular-a lot of work went into that and he should be absolutely ecstatic. I too come from a horse background.
