Welcome

Welcome to Shanshal Chinese Cresteds and Xoloitzcuintle. We are Shannon and Sharon Roberts and we are en-captured by these wonderful breeds.

My mum (Sharon) was fascinated by the Chinese Crested when she was little but didn't ever think she would be lucky enough to be owned by them, until the day we came across - as mum calls her - “the Crestie Lady” Chris Wheeler of Galchris, who has been very helpful in educating us in this breed and has now become a great friend.

After two and a half years of studying and researching the Chinese Crested in 2007 we finally got our first one, Lacie. Since then our Crested family has grown.

We also own a Standard Xoloitzcuintle - pronounced show-low-ee-squint-lee.

We became interested in this amazing breed in 2009 when we met Donna and Diva at Discover Dogs at Earls Court.  since then we have been researching and finding out about this ancient breed. we have since, met many wonderful people in the breed.

This is how Solana came into our lives. she is a daughter of Miss Diva and Mr Mango (owned by Gina). 

The Xoloitzcuintle is on the Import Register at the moment but we are all trying our very best to change this and get the breed fully recognized by the Kennel Club.

our aim is to promote, protect and preserve this great breed.

We are Owners/Breeders/Handlers of our Chinese Crested and Xoloitzcuintle at open and Championship show level in the Breed/Import classes and also Adult and YKC Handling classes.We are proud to have 4 Bitches and 2 Dogs with their Stud Book Numbers. We have bred 1 Champion, CC Winners, RCC winners, JW Holders, Group Winners, RBIS & RBPIS Winners.




We are members of The Chinese Crested Dog Club.

We are also members of The Xoloitzcuintle Club UK.
