71 dogs recorded (54 adults · 17 puppies).

• Adult dogs not up-to-date on vaccines

  At least 14 adult dogs are not up to date on distemper and parvovirus vaccines or did not have updated vaccine records to show they had been vaccinated. Some of them were either pregnant or nursing when the other dogs were vaccinated on 22-January-2022 for Parvovirus and Distemper. The Program of Veterinary Care states adults will receive a combo (DAAPv) vaccine annually and dewormed annually. -Three female adult dogs have not been dewormed or vaccinated since 1-January-2021. -Eight adult female dogs had a dewormer given to them on 22-January-2022, but the licensee did not write down the combo vaccine being given to them on that day. -Three younger female dogs, born at the facility, did not have their puppy distemper and parvovirus vaccines or deworming records available. The licensee states out of the 14 dogs, 3 were overdue for vaccines and deworming. Dogs not kept up to date on vaccines may contract contagious and/or deadly diseases, which may cause unnecessary pain and discomfort. Each dealer must follow an appropriate program of veterinary care for dogs that is developed, documented in writing, and signed by the attending veterinarian. The facility must follow the schedule for Distemper and Parvovirus vaccines and deworming schedule written in the Program of Veterinary Care to protect the dogs from these contagious and/or deadly diseases. The facility must vaccinate all dogs in need of the vaccines listed above, keep a written and updated vaccine record and maintain the vaccine schedule in all dogs from this day forward. To be corrected by: 9-December-2022.
