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.

Tonight my school district will play in the Illinois State Championship Basketball tournament.
We're up against a tough customer, Whitney-Young High School, Chicago. Some Illinois residents may be saying, hhhmmmmmm, why does W-Y sound familiar? It's not only the alma mater of our current first lady, Michelle Obama, but also has star player Marcus Jordan, son of the Chicago Bull's champion, Michael Jordan.:eek:
Send happy thoughts our way as our Bulldog's take on the Dolphins for the state championship.
Go!! Bulldogs!!
