What inspectors wrote
January 6, 2015 — Routine inspection, USDA 47-A-0579
84 dogs recorded (56 adults · 28 puppies).
Male Shih Tzu cloudy eye, heavy dental buildup
A male gray and white Shih Tzu ID # 025 has eye and teeth problems. His left eye has a clear white film covering much of the iris and pupil. The white of the eye is reddened, and there is a crusty green discharge on the edge of the top eyelid. Some of the discharge is matted in the hair around the eye. His right eye has a small, clear white filmy area about the size of a pencil eraser on the surface of the pupil. The dog also has a buildup of a hard brownish gray material covering a majority of both of the top canine teeth. The gums above both top canines have a red line at the base of the teeth. The rest of the teeth were difficult to visualize due to the dog's reluctance for the inspector to look inside his mouth.
Male Maltese heavy dental buildup
A male white Maltese ID # 40 has a buildup of a hard brownish gray material covering a majority of the surfaces of both top canines and cheek teeth, and the top right molar next to the cheek teeth.
