The licensee must ensure that all dogs less than 16 weeks of age are identified by an official tag as described in Sec. 2.51, a legible tattoo approved by the Administrator, a microchip, or a cage card (if maintained as a litter with their dam and housed within the same primary enclosure).

53 dogs recorded (47 adults · 6 puppies).

  • Needles and syringes reused between dogs

    Inside of the whelping facility there was an uncapped needle attached to a syringe, and a capped needle and syringe laying on top of a metal file cabinet ready for use. When the inspector asked the licensee what they were for, he said that they were for giving vaccines and medications to the dogs and puppies. When asked if he was using a new needle and syringe for each dog or puppy the licensee said "No" that he would use the same needle and syringe for the same product for all of the dogs/puppies but would clean the syringes/needles out with water in between uses of a different product. Using the same needle and syringe on different dogs and puppies and/or with different products could spread disease from one animal to another, may cause infection at the puncture site, and may contaminate the medication or vaccine. The licensee must use a new needle and syringe for each dog or puppy for injections and must NOT reuse the same needle and syringe for different medication or vaccines.
