Data from the Balihara Ranch kennel show that when the system fails to respond to extreme volumes, breeding naturally shifts into a production model. This analysis explains how repeated pairings and high litter counts become a long term strategy – not an exception. Where limits are absent, numbers decide, not selection.

When breeding is driven by numbers, its underlying logic shifts. Available data on Balihara Ranch indicate repeated use of the same sire–dam combinations, yielding dozens of puppies from the same pair. This article examines where responsible breeding selection ends and a production model begins—and why, without firm guardrails, the system naturally steers breeders toward volume over thoughtful selection.

As we enter the New Year, our wish is not for more, but for less. Fewer litters and fewer dogs where breeding has become an industry. Less silence around large commercial breeding operations. Because not everything that is legal is also right—and dogs have no way to say so out loud.

When dog breeding becomes the primary source of income and identity, stepping back without losses becomes impossible. A large commercial breeding operation like Balihara Ranch requires constant escalation, the concealment of reality, and the defense of a system that can no longer be acknowledged as problematic. This is not an individual failure, but the logical outcome of a career built exclusively on dogs.

The Qaiser van’t Stokerybos case shows how easily exports in dog breeding can be used not for cooperation between breeders, but to bypass the rules. A dog may be officially registered abroad while being physically used to breed females elsewhere—without the system addressing that contradiction.

The loan of a stud dog is legitimate in canine breeding. The problem arises when an export exists only on paper—allowing a dog to breed where it would otherwise never receive approval. The Qaiser van’t Stokerybos case shows how an administrative transfer can become a tool for bypassing the system.
