to give you a straight answer, there is still quite a few wheatens in the south that are performing well,although you will probably find it hard to get in touch with any wheaten men,unless you have a very good contact that could make a introduction, even then they still might not be interested in new faces,the men from northern ireland would come down and try to buy ,and even they at times found it hard to do so,and they were well respected dogmen,

Yes I remember when, in order to run dogs at the trials, each entrant was required to be a member of a club that was affiliated to the Working Terrier Federation of Ireland. Despite the rampant prejudice shown against some Northern clubs, we managed, by dint of a rather classy certificate designed by myself I might add, to get ourselves voted into the Fed and were able to run our dogs. Luckily Peter Gorman, like many of the ordinary working terrier men from the south, wasn't afflicted with the same bigotry and allowed us to buy pups and adults off him. I gave a pure wheaten of Peters breeding to my late friend, Tony Dunphy from Waterford, in the early 80's and some of the offspring has come North in later years to consolidate a successful line up here again. There's more that unites us than what divides us in this dog game.

 

That's one of the best posts I've ever read on here
