    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.

    @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!

    Hey, we must be on the same wave length. I've been watching that first one the last couple of days but hadn't seen #3. Here's the other one that got passed around: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGODurRfVv4 I decided to train Zest to bring my slippers to me. I think it took about 4 clicks for her to catch on. Last night I couldn't toss them around the corner and down the hall fast enough. And I have to say, I have heavy soled slippers, so it's not an easy task for a little girl. But she loves to bring me things. A few nights ago she found a wrapper from tenderloin in the yard. (wind blows a lot around here.) "Thank you Zest. Would like a cookie for that?" "Yes, momma, I'd like a cookie and you can have this prize. I thought you'd like it." She's such a good little girl! Here's pics from last weekend. The first one, the one of the closed tunnel, is from her titling run. So I bought it and now it's in the fridge. http://www.photoreflect.com/pr3/ThumbPage.aspx?e=5759087&g=03PG007V23
