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.
On a lighter note. . .

Dh was named Employee of the Year, amongst engineering supervisors at his job.
What makes it something to be more proud of, IMO, is that the other men have engineering degrees, and he has a high school diploma. Got some training in the Navy and then worked his way up from the bottom!Very cool, IMHO!
