Moorside Bullies
« on: Thursday 01 October 15 16:41 BST (UK) »
In 1950 my father purchased a British Bulldog puppy from a Cornish breeder. I have recently discovered a photograph of a lady with a Bulldog sitting at her feet and five puppies on her lap. On the reverse is written the words Moorside Bullies 1945. There is a second photo showing the same lady sitting with four Bulldogs named as Sally, Rosa, Susan and Judy. The photo is dated 1946. I have googled Moorside Bullies without success and Moorside Cornwall brings up a Moorside Cottage in Liskeard. Is there anyone out there who knows anymore about this breeder? What was her name? Where were her kennels? Does the kennels still exist today? Any information appreciated.

There is currently a British Bulldog breeder at Moorside, Sturminster Newton, Dorset?

Wonder if there is any connection?

Also advert 1944  Bulldog puppies.... Rose Row, Redruth ,  not a great distance between the two, perhaps a Mrs Witherspoon?
