MYTH #6: “Puppies Only to Vetted Homes”? The Reality of Mass Advertising and Third-Party Sales

by | Jun 26, 2025

Balihara Ranch positions itself as an elite kennel in the canine world.

In reality, it operates as one of the most aggressive production lines in the business.

The owner of Balihara Ranch advertises the kennel as an exclusive breeder with exceptional dogs – crafting an image that suggests not just anyone can obtain a puppy.

But the reality is alarmingly different.

Over 600 Ads. One Year. Just Two Countries.

In 2022, Balihara Ranch published over 600 puppy listings. A deeper look is available in this section: https://balihararanch.review/advertising-read-first/

All within the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

Across dozens of online platforms – including platforms named “Quick Sale,” “Profit Advertising,” and “Black Market.”

On some of these websites, the owner of Balihara Ranch posted more than 25 listings per day.

And this is just from two countries.

Given that the owner of Balihara Ranch frequently sells abroad, it’s reasonable to assume that similar volumes exist in other regions as well.

From the sheer quantity and sales tactics, one thing is clear:

This isn’t about carefully selecting the right home.

It’s a desperate offloading of overproduced litters.

Testing the Waters: A First-Hand Experience

As part of our verification process, we placed a direct call to one of the listings.

“They instantly offered several puppies. No questions about us. No visit allowed – ‘too busy.’ Just send a deposit first. Then you can come.”

No screening.

No interest in future living conditions.

Just a quick transaction: money for a puppy.

As if they were merchandise – not living beings.

Export Abroad: Widespread Practice, Zero Oversight

Documented evidence shows that the owner of Balihara Ranch exports dogs on a large scale – often via third-party brokers and with no knowledge of who the dog ultimately ends up with. A deeper look is available in this articles: https://balihararanch.review/the-shocking-truth-about-balihara-ranch-kennel-probable-dog-trafficking-and-unethical-practices-part-i/ and https://balihararanch.review/the-shocking-truth-about-balihara-ranch-kennel-probable-dog-trafficking-and-unethical-practices-part-ii/

The signs of mass trade are clear:

  • Multiple littermates sold at once to a single buyer.
  • Dogs that were never registered with their new owners.
  • Females who were then bred repeatedly with no rest between litters.

This isn’t a coincidence.

It’s a system.

Dogs as Products, not as Family

An ethical breeder:

  • Knows and vets each buyer
  • Verifies where the puppy is going
  • Requires direct contact and a signed contract
  • Avoids bulk sales of puppies like discounted goods

The owner of Balihara Ranch:

  • Advertises on every platform available
  • Sells to anyone willing to pay
  • Delivers dogs at the gate like parcels
  • Prioritizes quick turnover above all else

FCI Explicitly Prohibits Sales Through Brokers

The Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI) explicitly prohibits the sale of dogs through intermediaries or for commercial resale.

And yet, available export data clearly shows that this is precisely what is happening.

Some individuals acquired 4, 6, even 8 dogs from the Balihara Ranch owner at once.

Some imported littermates from the same breeding.

Many of these dogs were later used for large-scale breeding operations.

Conclusion: “Approved Homes” – Or Just First Come, First Served?

The facts speak for themselves:

  • 600+ listings every year.
  • Dogs shipped abroad with zero oversight.
  • Puppies handed over with no concern for their future.

This is not responsible breeding.

This is stock liquidation. Whoever pays first – gets the dog.

These findings are based on publicly accessible data, online ad listings, direct experience contacting the seller, and testimonies from individuals with first-hand experience with the breeder or her dogs.

When Numbers Start Calling the Shots: The Economics Turning Breeding Into a Production Model (Part I)

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.

A New Year’s Wish – If Dogs Could Speak

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.

The Cost of a Career Built on Dogs

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.
