Boxer enclosure floor separated
An enclosure in the "Boxer" building (containing three dogs) had a portion of floor that was separated from the subflooring. This created a gap that could allow a foot to become caught and injure the dog. Licensee must replace or repair this flooring to keep the enclosure in good repair and prevent injury to the dogs within. * To be corrected by: 4/7/14
(2) The use of appropriate methods to prevent, control, diagnose, and treat diseases and injuries, and the availability of emergency, weekend, and holiday care; * A female Silky Terrier (#157) nursing two puppies (DOB 4-19-14) is very thin with easily palpable ribs and defined vertebrae. She had a build up of brown, gray-green material on her back teeth with gums that were swollen and when touched, a thick yellowish- white discharge occurred. She also has matted hair on the face and legs that are dangling and pulling on the skin. The appearance of vertebrae and ribs may be an indication of malnourishment, parasites or other illness. Swollen gums may make eating painful also. Hair that is matted and pulling on the skin can cause discomfort and pain to the animal. The licensee must remove the matted hair and have this dog examined by a veterinarian. The licensee must ensure that a effective hair coat maintenance program is adhered to at all times to prevent matting of the hair and that all animals receive adequate veterinary care with documentation (preferably in writing) of any treatments, prescriptions or medical programs prescribed.
Holes in enclosure tops

Detached divider, Silky Terrier death(Direct)
At time of inspection the divider between two enclosures (2 Shih Tzu's with a Silky Terrier and 2 Boston Terriers) had come unattached from the main building.
