Our journey with this unique breed began nearly 30 years ago as devoted pet owners. In 2016, we entered the world of conformation dog shows, and our foundation female, Ch Taipan Palace Miss Ryley LC, opened the door to what would become a meaningful breeding program. Ryley’s dignified charm, loyalty, and hilarious “agility runs” quickly stole our hearts and the hearts of judges across Canada.
In 2019, Ch Gumby’s Flew the Cooper Buoy NTD joined our family and brought his own flair — winning titles before turning a year old and breaking stereotypes by loving to swim! Cooper’s joy, loyalty, and success in the ring have made him an incredible addition to our home and program.
At Nixon Wrinkle Ranch, we breed for health, temperament, and breed standards, with no more than two thoughtfully planned litters per year. All our dogs are CKC registered, health tested (including SPAID and Glaucoma), and OFA certified for hips and elbows. Puppies are raised in our home using the Puppy Culture Program, with 24/7 care, socialization, and early foundational training.
We are proud members of the Canadian Kennel Club, Chinese Shar-Pei Club of Canada, and founding members of the Chinese Shar-Pei Club of Ontario.
Our Shar-Pei are beloved family members — they sleep on our beds, join us at dinner, and are never kenneled or isolated. We expect the same level of love and care from our puppy families and offer ongoing support for every pup we place.
We welcome your interest and would be happy to chat further about our breeding program and upcoming litters.
