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.

They are all darling.I totally agree, kinda funny… my son asked if she glued all those dogs together to get the group pics!!!:D:D:D:D:D:D

Should probably post a disclaimer - no glue was used in the making of these pictures - heck look at the ones where they are diving off.
-
Wow! Great job getting those pups together for the group shots. They really turned out good.
-
Well I would not want to do that on a regular basis - it was hard work - can't wait to see what shots Laurie got of my butt this year - she has gotten them before and kindly does not post them.
-
OMG those are all wonderful pictures.
I just loved this one though, it just cracks me up

Well as if 11 puppies are not enough - I'm loading them up and taking them to our specialty in Houston, Tx. If anyone is going to be at the Reliant Shows next weekend - stop by and say hi at the Podengo grooming are or booth.
If you live in the area - we are going to need some extra hands at our specialty Sat evening after BIS - to take dogs back in the ring. Too few of us - too many dogs.

Here is a video I shot this weekend at their 8 week mark - I swear I put them out and they come back in 1 inch taller:

You will find some other videos there as well of the same day a little later (I'm too stupid to splice together) and previous videos as well.

They are so cute and boy have they gotten big. Is that Hanna I saw running around with them? Are you keeping any of them? I would keep'em all..my husband would move out, but oh well, so be it…LOL
