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.
Our new puppy is coming on 15th March…
-
I just dont think I can live with a Grub for 10-15 years :p:p
-
Snarf (eat fast)
Pig out (eat too much)
Nibble (just a little bit)
Roach Coach (one of those trucks that drive around to construction sites and such and
vend food)
Grab joint (like a street vendor–here it refers to carnival food vendors--where you grab
the food and eat it on the go)"Grub" isn't sounding so bad now, is it??:D
Congrats on the new pup. Hope all goes well this time!!
-
well, if it's helpful, Jane Goodall called her son Grub. Always thought that was strange.
-
I like Grub. Sorry.

REMEMBER, its food related…...........................................
-
Completely OT, sorry to the OP…......................................................Oh thats right thats MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE :p:p
Forexjohnny did you find yourself a B ??? Did you meet Davina ???
-
Hmmm…my next guess is Foster?
-
Yes I did meet Davina. I spent a few hours with her and her "kids". They are all great dogs who took it in turns to make themselves comfortable on me while I talked to her. :rolleyes: She had not set her breeding program then and by the time the puppies had arrived I had some changes in my life that has caused me to put on hold getting a puppie. It is only a temporary thing though, I do miss having a B in my life.
-
Ok I will spill the beans…
I think we will be calling him Ramsey, after Gordon Ramsey, of course :p:p
Only 5 more sleeps...
-
Ramsey….the pommie git. Can't you find some Aussie git instead :p
Let's see what the little monster looks like first, I mean well he may look like Sir Les with all them good manners and looks.
Seriously good luck and I hope everything works out for you. I cry every time I look at my girl's puppie photo's where she is sitting in the palm of my hand. B puppies are the best.

What about 'chow' as in chow down? Or you could go to a particular food item - like beans.
