Is it possible to trust a breeder from a distance?

I have to say buying from a breeder far away makes me very nervous. There are ways to minimize the risks though. This forum is a great tool for that and it's why it's so important to be able to discuss breeders open and honestly. I've had members here that I trust offer to visit breeders for me. I've had member here vouch for breeders too. I like getting references from a forum b/c it's independent. A breeder is more than likely going to put you in contact w/ someone they know is happy. You always have to consider the source. The breeder I'm considering is about 8-9 hours away, but she shows, so I was able to meet her recently. She also has friends in my area that are knowledgable breeders. I was able to go to one of their homes.
