29 dogs recorded (17 adults · 12 puppies).
Currently there are two kennels that have 2 dogs in each one that have an indoor temperature controlled area that is too small for both dogs to lie down in a normal comfortable manner. One enclosure has 2 adult German Shepard's(38-44") with an indoor area of only 12 sq. ft, which does not allow them enough room for both animals to lie down on their sides to extend their legs, they are in a crowded position. The other enclosure with an adult German Shepard and a beagle are in another12 sq. ft enclosure, where when the Shepard jumps or turns around it lands on top of the beagle. The lack of proper spacing for dogs can cause unnecessary stress or injuries in cramped conditions. While the dogs can go outside in the run area for more space, the indoor portion is the only temperature controlled area and both dogs need to be able to comfortably lie down inside to take advantage of the warmer or cooler environment provided in order to get away from the elements outside when needed. There can be an increase in stress and compatibility issues with dogs housed together if there is not enough room to separate. The licensee must provide housing of appropriate size to allow the dogs to lie down, stand and turn around without being hindered by other dogs or the facility itself. There are larger enclosures that the doubled up dogs could go into, while moving the single dogs into the smaller ones. To be corrected by: April 5, 2014
Currently there are several primary enclosure areas that have an accumulation of excreta that has piled up in the outdoor run area that is more than 2 days old. There is an accumulation of hair, old food and debris that is located along the sides of some of the enclosures in the indoor portion and along the edges of the matts. The wooden support beams that hold up the flooring has an accumulation of debris, hair, old food and feces in both the indoor and outdoor areas under the wire flooring that is only an 1-2 inches from coming into contact with the animals. The catchments under the flooring in building #2 have an excessive amount of old food, hair and debris that completely covers the catchment below with wire flooring with the puppies. There is a layer of white mold that covers the old food that is within 6 inches of the wire flooring. The cleaning schedule must be increased to keep up with the amount of food, debris, hair and excreta that is being produced. There is a strong odor of old food and excreta under the catchment area and coming from the buildup outside under the elevated runs area. There was a large amount of white eggs that were laid by insects in the piles of excreta under the flooring outside that will become a problem with pests as the weather warms. The licensee must remove excreta and food waste from primary enclosures daily. The pans under primary enclosures with grill-type floors and the ground areas under raised runs with mesh or slatted floors as often as necessary to prevent an excessive accumulation of feces and food waste, to prevent soiling of the dogs or cats contained in the primary enclosures, and to reduce disease hazards, insects, pests and odors.

40 dogs recorded (24 adults · 16 puppies).
Currently the majority of feeders (12) need to be cleaned and sanitized more often due to the brown grime and greasy film that is left along the sides and under the rim of the food bowl where the dogs mouth comes in contact with the feeder when eating. A buildup of dirt and grime in the food bowls and feeders can be a source of bacteria and pose a possible health hazard. The food receptacles must be cleaned and sanitized at least once every 2 weeks or more often as necessary to prevent the buildup of dirt and grime where the dogs will have direct contact with the food and feeder.

The second enclosure floor on the left has a 3 inch hole in the front left corner, and the last enclosure on the left side has a 6 inch hole in the wall below the flap door. There are 2 other enclosures on the left that have chewed wood around the door inserts or on the wall on the right side of the kennel There are multiple chewed 2x4s that make up the outdoor run 'doors' that have been chewed and damaged in the first breeder building.

Holes in the floors and walls can be a source of injury and hold debris that can cause possible health issues if it can not be cleaned and sanitized.

There are 5 outside runs in the breeder building that have a buildup of feces in the grate flooring that has not been cleaned out on a daily basis. The outdoor run areas are being picked up on a weekly basis instead of daily pickup. While most of the feces in most kennels goes through the flooring, there are several runs that have a solid buildup in one section that does not go through, or the slats have filled in and need to be cleaned out. The buildup of feces and lack of daily pickup can cause possible health issues if the animals come in continual contact with feces and debris. Hard surfaces with which the dogs or cats come in contact must be spot-cleaned daily and sanitized in accordance with Sec. 3.11(b) of this subpart to prevent accumulation of excreta and reduce disease hazards.
