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.
Where is everyone?

Okay light over Easter.. I get it but it's so quiet here it is echoing!
-
echoing, echoing, echo . . . .
i was wondering the same thing.
-
Still here…
I lurk a lot
-
Not the only one wondering- I check once or twice a day as there's been no posting…sometime so think my phones broken!! Lol
-
I had been thinking the same thing. It's disappointing to check for new posts and find nothing! Maybe I will have to think up something to discuss. Best to pick a controversial topic, that really gets things humming!
-
Been busier this semester… cutting back a bit on forum posts, but I still check in.
-
Glad I wasn't the only one wondering. I can't remember it being this quiet.
LOL yeah let's start some major threads with controversy! That'll get them going.

I could not get on yesterday (Saturday) as it gave me an error message like the site was down or something!

Sounds like we've all been lurking. Must be the winter hibernation.

I've been lurking too, not much to say but fun reading and seeing pics. Also might be that now the weather is getting nicer, we are all out more with the B's, spending more time walking or going to dog parks - I know we spend longer at the parks than we do when the weather is yucky. Soon it will be rainy lots of the time, and we'll be on more.
