We are a family team with over 25 years of owning, showing and breeding shar pei and also owning and showing Dobermann.

Our passion is breeding top quality dogs with health first and foremost, temperament, breed type and soundness.

How we started in the breed.....

After seeing Shar pei in a magazine that was were it all began for us we looked everywhere for a quality puppy and she was just that (Tai Omi Chopsticks At Tairoko) who took Best puppy Bitch and Best Puppy In Breed At Crufts 1996.

We went to a few shows here and there and that was it we was bitten by the bug going to open shows and champ shows all over the country and it's just never stopped.

Tairoko went on a break from the show ring in 1998 to have there one and only child Teigan.

Teigan at the age of 8 got bit by the bug of showing being trained by her mentors her dad, Irene Rushfirth & Keith Rushfirth (HIKAYS) .

Teigan has won with many breeds around the world and is now in patnership with the world famous Hikay's kennel.
