Meet the breeder

I'm Shirle G., the breeder behind Guardian’s of the Chihuahuas located in Beckemeyer, IL. We offer top quality family pets who are well loved and well tempered. They are socialized with other dogs and young children. Our babies are part of our family and we breed for great temperament and good health. They will be vet checked before being placed in there home. Our mission is to find loving homes for our babies.

Q. & A. with Shirle

  • Why did you start breeding?

    When I was younger, I always wanted a Chihuahua. But I could never find one of good quality or fairly priced. So that’s my mission… You shouldn’t have to brake the bank to own you dream fur baby.

  • What makes your program special?

    Our babies are our pets they are family. They live a happy life in doors and get spoiled everyday. We socialize all of our pets to provide a healthy personality and good behavior.

  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies include smooth and long coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include chocolate and white, blue and white, blue and tan, and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
