Welcome!

At Chifido, I strive to produce quality, healthy, happy dogs with excellent temperament and type.

I was first introduced to the breed some eleven years or so ago by my then partner.  He had fallen for this breed some ten years earlier when a friend of his bought one.  Years later he realised his dream and he bought our first Shar Pei Oliver.  I was immediately bewitched and took these wonderful dogs to my heart.  Although not bought as a show dog, Oliver gave me a taste for the show ring and eight months later, I bought Molly, my first show dog.  Pepper, a once in a  lifetime dog, followed shortly after giving me the foundation that is today, Chifido Shar Pei.

Time moves on and things inevitably change.  Sadly, in April 2006,  my best friend and confidant Pepper Anne was taken from me.  She has left a massive hole in my life and an even bigger ache in my heart.  Broken hearted, I thought I'd never have another black horsecoat again. 

All of my dogs are also my much loved pets. 

I am now proud to be owned by five generations of ten Shar Pei, each with their own unique personality.  I have and have had both horsecoats and brushcoats and still cannot imagine life without this amazing breed.

And I'm still learning.  Just when you think you've seen it all....... this lot throws something new at you!

All my dogs live as part of my family as you'll see if you visit our new photo gallery.  Thanks for stopping by.
