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.
Kitchen remodel!

I have been remodeling my kitchen for the past couple months and finally finished getting the cabinets in yesterday… just wanted to post some pics! It was a big job! Way bigger than I thought it was going to be when I first started, but then it was too late! We ripped out all the old cabinets and two layers of flooring, changed all the plumbing and electrical, added a sliding door out to the back deck/yard, and closed of an existing door. I still need countertops, a sink and to put the hardware on the cabinets and trim on the walls but its almost there!
enjoy!

Gorgeous!!!! The sliding doors really open that space up. Nice job, very beautiful. Can't wait to see it complete.
You also have the fridge that I want, I love the freezer on the bottom fridges.

Thanks for the topic. Beautiful job!! I envy you. I have a few questions if you don't mind. Our kitchen is the next room to be remodeled and we are also do-it-yourselfers.

You did a real great job there.
Choosing blue for a kitchen is quite clever. Did you know that a) blue or turquoise keeps you away from eating attacks and b) that the Bauhaus community (a bunch of designers in early 19 hundred) found out, that this colours keeps flies away? I wonder if you would keep an eye on these two issues and let us know, if it is true or not so true…Regards,
