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.

Hi everyone!
it's been quite a long time since i've last visited this forum.
Do you remember the thread about the 'Cretan Tracer dog' i put forward the other day?
well i undertook the translation of the sight into English!
wow, it takes a lot of time and i hope it will soon be ready!
My basenji boy is now 4 months old and as time goes by i can't believe how sweet how lovely how fantastic this creature is!
I LOVE HIM sooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
