55 dogs recorded (30 adults · 25 puppies).
Shelter walls soiled in 7 enclosures
Enclosures are not being cleaned properly. The walls of 7 sheltered primary enclosures housing 23 adult dogs are soiled with brown material. Inadequate and infrequent cleaning and sanitization allows for the growth of disease-causing agents that may increase the risk of health hazards for the animals. Appropriate cleaning and sanitization of the surfaces must include removal of the buildup of material found and to prevent accumulation of this material. All surfaces of housing facilities must be cleaned and sanitized when necessary to satisfy generally accepted husbandry standards and practices. Correct by ensuring hard surfaces with which the dogs come into contact with are spot cleaned daily and sanitized in accordance with 3.11 (b) of this subpart to prevent accumulation of excreta and reduce disease hazards. Correct by 6-SEPT-2024.
Six dogs not up-to-date on Distemper/Parvo
The applicant is not following the vaccination schedule in the written Program of Veterinary Care (PVC).
