I have been told its near impossible to get solid coloured pups from any reputable breeders in Ireland. Do any of you guys know any different?

I don't think that's true. Many of the Collooney and Barnesmore whippets in Northern Ireland are brindle with just a bit of white marking and I've also seen some fawns from Collooney kennels. Blacks and blues are rare, but I've heard of a breeder in Waterford who mostly has fawns and blues from Laguna stock.

Do you live in Ireland?

I have 2 solid brindles from the Barnesmore kennels in Northern Ireland both have a small amount of white markings
