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'm at a truck stop at I-20, exit 165 Lincoln, AL. There is a gold Chesapeake Retriever bitch hanging around the truck stop. By the look of her breasts, she has pups right now. She appears to be a stray. I poured some of AJ's food on the ground for her. I couldn't get near her because she kept her distance when I whistled for her. She seems a little shy. She doesn't appear to be wearing a collar.
I wasn't sure where to post this, but if anyone knows a Retriever rescue in this area, please contact them. This was the only pic I could get of her.
