Considering a puppy? Learn the truth about breeding kennels like Balihara Ranch! Behind polished ads, some kennels prioritize high-volume breeding over animal welfare. In this article, we expose the warning signs of unethical breeding and help you make an informed decision.

Balihara Ranch: Reputable breeding kennel or a factory of suffering? Behind its polished reputation, alarming reports reveal disturbing breeding practices, overcrowding, and questionable welfare conditions. Are these dogs thriving, or just surviving?

On February 14, 2025, the Slovak Club of Swiss Mountain Dogs (SKŠSP) issued a statement confirming the accuracy of its database and indirectly acknowledging concerns about an unusually high number of litters, the exploitation of regulatory loopholes, and the leniency of evaluation committees in connection with breeding practices at Balihara Ranch kennel. Following a request from the Balihara Ranch’s owner, the club restricted access to the database. This decision has further fueled public interest in breeding transparency, sparking debate over whether it was made in the interest of personal data protection.

In 2022, Balihara Ranch kennel produced at least 141 Swiss Mountain Dog puppies and expanded its Norfolk Terrier breeding operation, posting over 600 sale ads in just one year. This high-volume breeding raises serious concerns about animal welfare and the ethics of large-scale puppy production.

Forced to give birth over and over, Kataleya from Balihara Ranch, an Appenzeller Mountain Dog, spent nearly 3 years of her life either pregnant or nursing. 46 puppies, 8 litters, and a broken body. She became another victim of Balihara Ranch’s ruthless breeding machine, used up and discarded like so many before and after her. This is the horrifying truth behind the so-called ‘responsible’ Balihara Ranch kennel.
