Meet the breeder

I'm Katie S., the breeder behind WrinkleMonsters located in Salem, OH. I am a small breeder that strictly devotes my life to chinese shar pei. I breed for health, temperment and strive for longevity.

Q. & A. with Katie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Something that me and my mother talked about when I was about 13 years old. As soon as I was able to move out I got my first shar pei and from there it has grown.

  • What makes your program special?

    The devotion and time I spend with my dogs and puppies, care I put into them, health testing for poag/pll and spaid gene. I will always be there for any circumstance to help how I see fit.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Katie answered all of my questions. She was extremely responsive and knowledgeable. We absolutely adore our baby boy. We have had him for 3 months and couldn't imagine life without him

    Our experience with Katie from Wrinkle Monsters was fantastic from our first conversation to the pick up of our furry friend. Katie was exceptionally helpful, knowledgeable and supportive. We have maintained contact with Katie after our baby came home. She helped to make sure the transition went as smooth as possible. I have and would continue to recommend Katie and Wrinkle Monsters to anyone looking for a wonderful loving wrinkled friend.

    I could not have asked for a better experience than working with Katie at wrinkle monsters. A real professional in the field of breeding Sharpei. I have a beautiful new girlfriend and buddy at my home now. I cannot recommend this breeder more. If you are considering getting a Sharpei, you don’t need to look any further.❤️🐶
