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.
Shade Screens for ex-pens
-
I'm trying to find some of the "shade screens" you can use to put over ex-pens such as at coursing events, etc. The ones that I am interested in look like a durable woven mesh fabric and are big enough to go over the sides of the pen most of the way (I have a 42" high pen). If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

Home Depot, you can buy it by the yard.

My husband said he got ours at Orchard Supply Hardware not Home Depot but I think it is at Home Depot too.

Cool, I'll check this weekend. I'm guessing it would be in the gardening section if they sell it to protect plants.

I am not sure but that makes sense. I think it is called "shade cloth" so you can ask someone at the store if you are having trouble finding it.
Here is a link to the Home Depot page with it on it, http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&langId=-1&catalogId=10053&productId=100656888
