84 dogs recorded (66 adults · 18 puppies).

  • Expired medications present (Repeat)

    While examining the medications for the dogs, a bottle of Combi-Pen-48 that expired in February 2015 was found and a bottle of Oxytocin Injection that expired in February of 2013 was also found. The use of expired medical material is not considered to be acceptable veterinary practice and may not be effective. The expired medications should either be properly disposed of or appropriately labeled as expired and moved to a physically separate location from the non-expired medical material.

  • Feces buildup in indoor enclosures

    In the back section of the barn at least six of the indoor enclosures, containing at least ten dogs, have a buildup of feces in them. The inspector observed that the feet of two white dogs were soiled with a brown material. The feces in one enclosure have become smeared and compressed onto the concrete flooring as the dogs ran over the top of it. The facility representative explained that the feces are removed from the enclosures every Wednesday and Friday. Buildup of fecal material can cause the dogs to become soiled and increases the risk of disease. All hard surfaces with which the dogs come in contact must be spot-cleaned daily and sanitized once every two weeks, or as often as necessary, to prevent the buildup of feces and reduce the disease risk. Correction date: Immediately

  • Dogs in pooled liquid waste

    In the back section of the barn at least six of the indoor enclosures have a dark brown liquid pooling in the front section of them. Some of the puddles have feces in them and have a foul odor. The affected enclosures contain at least thirteen dogs. Puddles of liquid waste can cause the dogs to become soiled and wet and increases the disease risk. Housing facilities for dogs must be equipped with drainage systems that are constructed and operated so that animal waste and water are rapidly eliminated and standing puddles of liquid must be drained or mopped up to ensure animals stay dry and disease risks are minimized. Correction date: June 16, 2015 The following dogs cited under 2.40 (b) (2) on inspection report dated March 25, 2014 have been evaluated by a licensed veterinarian and received treatment: Female Schnauzer (microchip #003 795 863) Female Shih Tzu (microchip #003 546 354)
