The facility is not maintaining adequate records of acquisition and disposition. Cage cards are used for acquisition records for litters of puppies; however, they do not contain all of the required information such as: USDA license number, individual puppy identification numbers, gender of each puppy, color, breed, and date of disposition as required by the Animal Welfare Act Regulations subpart 2.75(a)(1)(i-ix). Additionally, not all of the APHIS 7006 Record of Disposition forms evaluated during the inspection are being filled out completely. Approximately 15 forms from 2023 and 2024 were missing required information found in the Regulations under 2.75(a)(1)(i-ix), such as the date of disposition, the name and address of the person who purchased the dog and whether or not that person is licensed under the Act, the vehicle license number and State and the driver’s license number of the person who purchased the dog, method of transportation, and the method of disposition (sale, donation, etc). Accurate record keeping is essential so that APHIS inspectors can adequately identify the movement of dogs into and out of the facility, especially in cases of loss or theft. Each dealer shall make, keep, and maintain records for forms which fully and correctly disclose the information concerning each dog purchased or otherwise acquired, owned, held, or which is transported, sold, or otherwise disposed of by that dealer. The records shall include any offspring born to any animal while in his or her control. Correct by maintaining complete records for acquisition and disposition by December 25, 2024.
The licensee is not following the Program of Vet Care (PVC) for vaccinations in adult dogs. The Animal Welfare Act (AWA) requires vaccinations for contagious and/or deadly diseases of dogs, including rabies, distemper, and parvovirus. The facility’s PVC prescribes for the rabies vaccine to be given according to label directions, and for the distemper and parvovirus vaccines to be given yearly to adult dogs. None of the adult dogs at the facility are up to date on all three of the vaccines required by the AWA, nor do they have a prior history of vaccines. Failure to follow the PVC for vaccinations leaves the dogs susceptible to diseases, which, if contracted, would cause pain, distress, and suffering. It is also important for breeding dogs to be vaccinated because they will pass immunity from vaccines onto their offspring. Correct by administering all of the vaccines required by the Animal Welfare Act (distemper, parvovirus, and rabies) in accordance with a schedule approved by the Attending Veterinarian and vaccine manufacturer recommendations. Correct By: January 15, 2025, onward.
The facility has not retained copies of all medical records. The facility reports yearly fecal testing was completed during the kennel inspection by the Attending Veterinarian, with the most recent being completed on 4/24/24. However, the facility does not have a copy of the results for any of the fecal samples. Maintaining medical records assists APHIS inspectors in confirming adequate veterinary care is being provided to the regulated dogs at the facility. Dealers must keep copies of medical records for dogs, including the dates and findings/results of all screening, routine, or other required or recommended test or examination. Correct by: December 25, 2024, onward.

Five puppies did not have access to water. The puppies were in two temporary housing enclosures (one housing two Cavapoos and two Yorkipoos, and one enclosure housing one Cockapoo) and so, the licensee didn't think they needed water for that short period of time (a few hours). The enclosures had neither a water bowl nor an automatic waterer. The licensee provided the puppies with water when asked to by the inspector. The puppies showed little to no interest in the water. Access to water is necessary to prevent dehydration, especially in young puppies who may not have a lot of stamina yet. Correct by ensuring potable water is continually provided to all dogs and puppies at all times.

There is no medical record for a dog being treated for an ear problem. A physical exam by the veterinarian dated 4/12/25 identified female French Bulldog #2612 had a left ear problem. The dog was prescribed Posatex to be given once a day for 7 days. The licensee reports he is applying the medicine; however, he has not created a medical record to reflect this. Accurate medical record keeping ensures adequate veterinary care can be assessed by USDA officials during inspection. Facilities must keep copies of medical records when a problem is identified which include the date and description of the problem, exam findings, test results, plan for treatment and care and treatment procedures performed when appropriate.

The outside portion of a sheltered housing facility enclosure failed to safety contain a Cavapoo puppy (DOB 7/12/25). There is an approximately 4-5” space between the outer wall of the housing facility and the flooring of the outside enclosure that is used as a washdown gutter. It runs along the length of the kennel. The puppy went into that gutter area and entered the adjacent enclosure. The three small breed dogs in that kennel reportedly killed the puppy. The licensee reports this incident happened yesterday and he found the puppy deceased. Escaping from an enclosure can cause harm, injury, or loss of dogs and puppies. The housing facilities must be designed and constructed so that they protect the animals from injury and contain the animals securely. Correct by ensuring construction methods are used to ensure puppies are not able to get into the washdown gutter area and enter into other enclosures, and that all dogs are contained safely and securely. Correct by October 5, 2025.
The sheltered housing facility has 24 enclosures. Each enclosure has a metal front gate. Each gate contains numerous areas of excessive rust. The paint that had been in these areas is now replaced with rust and the rust is flaking and peeling. This kind of surface cannot be properly sanitized. Excessive rust, if not corrected, could also affect the structural strength of the gates. Correct by ensuring the metal surfaces are maintained so that proper sanitization can occur, such as sealing the rusted areas, or removing and replacing the gates if they cannot be reconditioned. Correct by: October 30, 2025
