A few were tried, noisy and didn’t like to travel.....I believe 

Most are noisy that's why I was asking.

I don't think so.. but  Wheatens  are  same size as Pit Bulls , so would be no reason they could not have been used

‘Woodview Bronagh’ - as you say, note the physique very similar to that of a pit bull, just after a swim.

Capable looking Wheaten.

great great grandparent on Dam’s side English bull ‘red hand of Ulster’

Great grandparent on Sire’s side ‘Border Bess’ trialed 18 out of 18 never lifted.

Lawlor and Mortimor’s ‘Woodview Teddy’ glen of Imaal. after a trim, doesn’t look too impressed with the new hair cut. 
 

Though shows the solid physique.

Glens again, left to right 

‘Tinahealy lad’ ‘Wicklow bride’ & ‘churchland boy’ good working glens.

 ‘Tinahealy lad’ won many trials.

keeping on track as a English Bull thread 

Marcel Edwards ‘the old bull bitch’ who produced Murphy and Coopers CH ‘Stormer’.

you can see the Dams stamp in ‘Stormer’ imo.

Didn’t attach picture.

Dumphy’s ‘Daughter of Socks’, good bitch, done well at trials can see some of the trophies/certificates in the background. 
 

unsure of the make up, definitely has Stafford influence, Socks lineage.

Loving this thread and all pics. Seems the glen and Kerry wasn’t trialed all that much. Mainly a wheaten and bull show .

Would love a dog like that. 'Remember speaking with Glen years ago on the phone (when I first moved here, green and stupid lol) and had it I was gonna get jumping on the backs of pigs with these types  

That boy there is a specimen
