All dogs including puppies need to be identified in order to allow for accurate identification for legal and medical purposes.

• Missing APHIS 7005 and 7006 forms

  The facility does not maintain complete Record of Acquisition of Dogs and Cats on hand form (APHIS form 7005) or a Record of Disposition of Dogs and Cats form (APHIS form 7006) for the dogs and puppies born and sold at the facility. Eleven puppies have been born at the facility since the last inspection and only two are documented on the APHIS 7005 form. There is no APHIS 7006 forms created or maintained for the three adults and five puppies sold since the last inspection. The acquisition and disposition records are instead being kept on documents they have created. They do not have a variance in place that allows them to use other forms. Failure to use APHIS form 7005 and 7006 does not allow for proper traceability and management of regulated animals at a facility. Each dealer and exhibitor shall use the Record of Acquisition of Dogs and Cats on Hand (APHIS Form 7005) and Record of Disposition of Dogs and Cats (APHIS Form 7006) to make, keep, and maintain the information required by paragraph (a)(1) of this section. Provided, that if a dealer or exhibitor who uses a computerized recordkeeping system believes that APHIS Form 7005 and APHIS Form 7006 are unsuitable for him or her to make, keep, and maintain the information required by paragraph (a)(1) of this section, the dealer or exhibitor may request a variance from the requirement to use APHIS Form 7005 and APHIS form 7006. Correct by ensuring all required information is fully and correctly documented on an APHIS Form 7005 and 7006, or by obtaining a variance. Correct by: 08/15/2026.

• Incomplete medical records for dogs

  The licensee did not maintain complete medical records for dogs. The APHIS official was provided a record of vaccines, given by the licensee, for both dogs and puppies present during the inspection, and a list of reminder dates for the dogs' exams, rabies vaccines, heartworm tests, and fecal tests provided from the veterinarian’s office. No findings from the screening tests (internal parasite and heartworm tests) were listed.

• Adult female Mocha cherry eye undocumented

  Also, Mocha, an adult female, was diagnosed with cherry eye by the attending veterinarian, per the licensee, but they did not have records documenting the date and description of the problem, examination findings, or the plan for her treatment and care. Keeping up to date medical records is required to verify routine preventative care, annual exam findings and appropriate treatment of any medical conditions/injuries for the dogs. The facility must keep copies of medical records for dogs that include the following required information: identifying information about each dog, all preventative and routine husbandry procedures performed, information about problems identified, treatments/vaccinations administered, and results of all tests and examinations performed as well as make the records available for APHIS inspection. Correct by 08/15/2026.
