S. Sathish, a well-known Bengaluru breeder, has recently made headlines with his latest acquisition—a rare wolfdog hybrid named Cadaboms Okami, purchased for a staggering ₹50 crore (approximately $5.7 million). This acquisition has not only set a record for the costliest dog in India but also shed light on Sathish’s expertise and influence in the dog breeding industry.
Sathish is a renowned Bengaluru breeder with over three decades of experience in breeding and raising exotic dog breeds. He is the founder of Cadaboms Kennels, one of India’s most prestigious breeding centers, known for its top-quality dogs. Over the years, his kennel has bred over 100 champion dogs and houses more than 120 dogs across 20 different breeds.
Apart from being a breeder, Sathish is also the President of the Indian Dog Breeders Association, a role that allows him to play a significant part in shaping dog breeding standards in the country. His knowledge and passion for rare breeds have made him one of the most respected figures in India’s pet industry.
The latest addition to Sathish’s kennel, Cadaboms Okami, is a cross between a Caucasian Shepherd and a wolf. This rare hybrid combines the intelligence and protective instincts of the Caucasian Shepherd with the wild traits of a wolf, making it an extraordinary breed.
At just eight months old, Okami already weighs 75 kilograms and stands 30 inches tall. His striking appearance and rare lineage have made him one of the most sought-after canines in the world. Sathish acquired Okami from an international breeder, with the pup originally bred in the United States.
Sathish is no stranger to purchasing rare and expensive dogs.
Sathish’s interest in unique dogs has been a key factor in increasing awareness and demand for exotic breeds in India.
Since arriving in India, Cadaboms Okami has become a sensation in Karnataka and across the country. Sathish often showcases him at public events, including film premieres and pet expos. At a recent event, a video of Okami attracted over three million views online, demonstrating the public’s fascination with the wolfdog.
Recognizing the demand, Sathish has also monetized his dogs’ public appearances. He charges:
This strategy not only helps him recover his investments but also promotes responsible breeding and awareness of rare breeds.
Sathish ensures that all his dogs live in the best possible environment. His kennel is spread over seven acres and features:
For nutrition, Sathish prefers raw food over commercial pet food, as he believes packaged food contains steroids that reduce dogs’ lifespan. Okami, for instance, consumes 3 kg of raw chicken meat daily.
Sathish’s love for rare dogs is matched by his passion for luxury automobiles. He owns a fleet of high-end cars, including Rolls Royce, Range Rover, and BMWs. He often transports his prized dogs in these luxury vehicles, ensuring they travel in comfort and style.
S. Sathish, the celebrated Bengaluru breeder, has once again made history with his purchase of the rare and expensive wolfdog, Cadaboms Okami. His commitment to breeding and introducing unique dogs to India has made him a key figure in the industry. With his latest acquisition, he has not only set a new record but also reinforced his status as one of India’s top dog breeders.
As the demand for exotic pets continues to grow, it remains to be seen what rare breed Sathish will bring to India next. But for now, Cadaboms Okami reigns as the most expensive dog in the country.
