What inspectors wrote
September 16, 2020 — Routine inspection, Pennsylvania 17363
77 dogs recorded (35 adults · 42 puppies).
Primary enclosures too small
Wardens viewed that the kennel had two dogs that did not have the required primary enclosure size.
Exercise areas too small
Wardens viewed that the kennel had two dogs that did not have the required exercise area size.
The gates on seven of the dog enclosures have latches that are not functioning properly. After much use, the springs in the latches do not provide enough tension to hold the gates closed when the dogs jump on them. The licensee has attached dog collars to the effected gates to prevent them from opening completely, however, a 3"-4" gap is still present when the dogs jump against the gates. Failure to maintain enclosure gates can allow for gaps which can result in injury, entrapment, or escape of the dogs. Primary enclosures shall be maintained in good repair to protect the animals from injury and contain them. Correct by: June 6, 2023.
