    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.

    @sanjibasenji Thanks for the article on Dog Genome Project - I found it very interesting. I was trying to figure out the interactive Genome wheel. It has the basenji closely related to the Azawakh and rat terrier but I’m still trying to figure out the first wheel which has the basenji listed w/ black/grey starting point. As far as the PBS Dog Tales video - it’s very interesting - it’s season 47 episode 2 - I highly recommend you watch the whole thing (54 minutes).

    @Kembe, nice post! We've gone to solid food chopped up in a food processor, but we're grinding it a bit more course as we go. So far, no puppies are choking, but good to know!

    My grandma died at the age of 62 from breast cancer, mom had it at age 40, and I was diagnosed and had at age 42 a double mastectomy, hysterectomy, 6 mo. of chemo, 7 weeks of radiation, and will probably take anti hormone pills the rest of my life. C A N C E R sucks. My husband was diagnosed 7 years ago at age 39 with a RARE appendix cancer that has no cure and is struggling with the affects almost constantly. DRIVE FOR A CURE! We appreciate your efforts and great things can happen when people work together! Very, Very sorry for your loss.
