Not that I've ever found, and I go looking about twice a year or so. |

I am not sure if all the words that rhyme rhyme in all the dialects - I wouldn't think so. It would be interesting to compile one for a specific pronunciation. |

All words don't rhyme in all dialects in English, either, and yet English rhyming dictionaries have been around for ages.
It would really be a handy thing to have indeed.
But hey, Irish only recently got a really good thesaurus, so perhaps in another seventy years we'll see one... |

What thesaurus are you referring to?

Not really a rhyme dictionary but reverse, at least:
A reverse dictionary of modern Irish

I'm referring to both Teasáras (Bannister, 2008) and Focail i bhFocas (Mac Cionnaith, 2004). |
