What would be the best way to look up pitbull breeders whilst I am in Ireland?

you could try posting on the bull terrier times board i think theres a few folk from ireland post on there, but they can be quite (rightly) suspicious of strangers and will probably advise you to forget the idea cos theres someone on there almost every week asking about pitbulls, but if you persist and they see you as being genuine they might be able to help

abbymum:

i would rather say i was misinformed. i wanted to kill off the breed, to stop all the hassle. indeed it would, but we would lose something to...and where would it end? i am just schocked though at how wrong we can be, just because we are told what way to think by way of the media. its down right brainwashing - but we take it all in.

Thanks CBT, might give it a go

Do the actual breeders in Eire remain pretty secretive, I mean do they not have an organisation or something you can call to find local breeders?

it doesnt seem to be working then, cos I know a few who regularly ship in pits and other bull breeds from the states
