Hello and welcome to the North Island Bull Terrier Club's website. 

  • History:
    Located in NEW ZEALAND, and covering the North Island.

    The Club has a long history in New Zealand, functioning for over twenty years. It is associated to the New Zealand Kennel Club and holds several shows each year. The 'NIBTC' caters to pet owners as well as breeders. Anyone who is interested in the breed is welcome to join, by posting a completed membership form which is can be downloaded here, or is available from the Secretary.

  • Aims:
    Our prime objectives are to promote happy, healthy Bull Terriers at all levels of ownership. A copy of the rules is available on request.  We encourage owners who want to breed their bull terriers to check first that they don't have any of the breeds known hereditary diseases.  The club has literature on these and committee members are happy to talk to anyone who would like to know more.

  • Bulletin:
    The club publishes a bulletin 4 times a year which contains information about it's activities and general information about the breed. It also has humorous articles and stories.

  • Trading Table:
    A  trading table is kept stocked with Bull Terrier items such as books, tee shirts, caps and beanies. The table is found at any club function, or orders can be made by mail. Examples of tee-shirts can be seen here.

  • Puppies/breeders:
    The club may be able to help with information about current litters. Please be aware there are 'breeders' advertising pedigree pups that are not actually able to be registered with the New Zealand Kennel Club for showing and breeding. If your aim is to own a pedigree Bull Terrier with a certified pedigree issued by the kennel club, we encourage you to give them a call on 04 237 4489, or email nzkc@nzkc.org.nz to make sure that the person selling the pups is actually a registered breeder.
