  • Dirt and grease on fiberglass walls

    There is a mixture of dirt, grease and other excreta accumulating on the interior fiberglass wall of sixteen enclosures. Fourty dogs are in contact with the affected surfaces located in outdoor housing. The affected area covers approximately 30 to 40 percent of the interior wall area. Cleaning of surfaces is necessary to prevent an accumulation of excreta and other disease hazards. This indicates an unsanitary living condition exists that could lead to potential disease or health risks. Surfaces which are not cleaned and sanitized properly increase the risk of disease hazards for the dogs. Cleanliness is important to the health and well-being of the animals. All surfaces of housing facilities must be cleaned and sanitized when necessary to satisfy generally accepted husbandry standards and practices. The applicant must ensure that hard surfaces with which the dogs come in contact must be spot cleaned daily and sanitized in accordance with 3.11 (B) of this sub part to prevent accumulation of excreta and reduce disease hazards.

    Bird droppings were observed collecting on top of the metal pipe enclosure frame. Ten dogs are in contact with the affected area located in outdoor housing. Cleaning of surfaces is necessary to prevent an accumulation of dirt, excreta and other disease hazards. It indicates unsanitary living conditions exist that could increase the risks of disease transmission, which negatively affects the health of the dogs. Adequate cleaning is a crucial aspect of animal husbandry and helps to reduce disease hazards, odors and pests. The applicant must remove excreta and food waste from the primary enclosure daily and from under the primary enclosures as often as necessary to prevent an excessive accumulation of feces and food waste, to prevent soiling of the dogs contained in the primary enclosures, and to reduce disease hazards, insects, pests and odors.
