Sherry L.

Breeder of Chihuahuas

Meet the breeder

I'm Sherry L., the breeder behind Paradox Chihuahuas located in El Cerrito, CA. I’m a small-time breeder, breeding for show. I breed infrequently, perhaps once every two years.

Q. & A. with Sherry

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I started breeding two years after purchasing my first show quality Chihuahua with the help of my mentor who taught me to study pedigrees.
  • What makes your program special?

    I breed for type, structure, and temperament - all qualities that are essential in the ring. My little dogs are noted for their happy dispositions.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
