In the first part, we showed where the system fails in the field — in limits, inspections, and exports. This second part uncovers something even more serious: club-level exceptions, conflicts of interest, and lax oversight by the Slovak Cynological Union (SKJ), all of which have allowed kennels like Balihara Ranch to grow to a scale that today’s mechanisms can no longer effectively regulate.

Current rules of the FCI and breed clubs contain fundamental blind spots: no limits on litters, no meaningful welfare inspections and weak oversight of exports. These gaps create the conditions in which extreme-scale kennels can thrive. And the only way to stop them is to change the system itself — not to address individual cases, such as the Balihara Ranch kennel, only after they grow beyond what today’s club and legislative mechanisms are capable of handling.

The Slovak Club of Swiss Mountain Dogs has published an exceptional detail: two breeding advisors assigned to the owner of the Balihara Ranch kennel — the only such case in the entire system. This rare exception signals that behind the polished façade of the kennel may conceal a far greater scale of breeding activity and administrative workload than the public typically imagines.

Balihara Ranch – nearly 3,000 puppies in thirty years. Not passion, but a system. Not breeding, but production. Beautiful dogs. Cruel rhythm. And a price we choose not to see.

The Slovak Club of Swiss Mountain Dogs (SKSSP) has moved its breeding data behind closed doors after a complaint from the owner of Balihara Ranch Kennel. The data didn’t vanish — they were simply moved out of sight. Transparency has turned into a privilege, leaving honest breeders in the shadow of those who found facts inconvenient.

Most of the brightest stars of Balihara Ranch aren’t its own offspring, but dogs from other kennels. They carry a name associated with success — yet behind their shine lies the silence of hundreds of others. Without famous names. Without glory. Without a voice.
