Us too. That's why we built Pawthenticity — a nonprofit transparency platform that compiles already-public information about breeders: ownership, license(s), inspections, violations, kennel size, breeds, and more.
Our goal is simple: an honest, transparent, and up-to-date resource for the dog community. 🐾

USDA Inspections
USDA inspectors visit licensed dog breeders to check that their facilities meet federal Animal Welfare Act standards — housing, food and water, veterinary care, sanitation, and how the dogs are handled. Each visit produces a public report through the USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). For citations, we've included the first sentence of the report. Click the PDF to read the entire inspection.

Pawthenticity summarizes public inspection records from USDA APHIS to help people make informed decisions. The findings, citation codes, and dates shown are drawn directly from those records and reflect conditions documented on the inspection date(s) shown — they may not reflect current operations. Category and severity labels are our summary of the USDA's own findings, not independent judgments about a breeder.
