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.

I am really bored this afternoon, the HDTV guy is here setting up HDTV and he is taking forever. This would not bother me if school wasn't over because I could study or do school work but I took my last final last night.
I've already ready everything on the Basenji Forums that I have missed.
I am ready to the Dog park when they are done here but now it looks like rain (really it looks like snow but it is too warm for that).
Sigh, I am so bored. I guess I could wrap Christmas presents …

Join the club. i'm bored also…. i went to the library this morning and rented a few videos. Anyone seen Dogville with Nicole Kidman? Its strange... the whole movie is set as if it were a play, in a town called Dogville, but there are no actual buildings on the set, all the buildings just have these sort of chalk outlines....no walls.
Anyway.... ho hum...

I've been so busy, I wish I was bored. I chaired my son's hockey team Christmas party today (50 people including parents & siblings at a bowling ally) - I'm pooped! My DH claimed the sofa - So I'm biding my time till he gets off - then it's mine!!!

T&D, glad to see that I wasn't alone. Of course once the HD guy left the rain was starting to sprinkle.
Jill, your day made me tired just reading I think you just help me justify my nap I took this afternoon!
