USDA inspectors visit licensed dog breeders to check that their facilities meet federal Animal Welfare Act standards — housing, food and water, veterinary care, sanitation, and how the dogs are handled. Each visit produces a public report through the USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). For citations, we've included the first sentence of the report.

“Facility owner admitted to selling puppies to a pet store and having approximately 16 dogs on the premesis. ... Sale records confirm this facility has sold to a pet store. ... These wholsale sales of puppies without a license are in violation of Section 2.1.”
“At least 14 enclosures housing 14 dogs, had wire flooring where the coating was not present. The wire floor coating was missing on portions of the outside part of the sheltered buildings.”
“There was no recorded date for annual fecal float testing for 30 dogs.”
“The facility is not maintaining adequate records of acquisition. Cage cards are used for acquisition records for litters of puppies; however, they do not contain all the required information by not listing the color and any distinctive markings for each puppy ...”
“The licensee did not create a medical record of the administration of a DAPP (5-way) vaccine for a litter of six puppies born on 3 December 2024 ... The licensee states that the vaccines were administered on 7 February 2025, but he did not make a record of it.”
Counts include adults and puppies. The dog-count color shows kennel size: green for smaller kennels, yellow for mid-size, and red for the largest (150 or more dogs). In the findings column, a red finding marks a critical citation.

Pawthenticity summarizes public inspection records from USDA APHIS to help people make informed decisions. The findings, citation codes, and dates shown are drawn directly from those records and reflect conditions documented on the inspection date(s) shown — they may not reflect current operations. Category and severity labels are our summary of the USDA's own findings, not independent judgments about a breeder. If you believe any information here is inaccurate or out of date, please submit a correction.
Pawthenticity is a nonprofit organization creating a public database of dog breeders. We combine a breeder's USDA reports, state inspections, licensing records, and other publicly available information into a complete profile – free for all.
Our aim is an accurate, complete, easy-to-read record for every breeder. Here's an example profile.
If you believe dogs deserve more protection, and puppy parents deserve better information, please consider donating, volunteering, or sharing Pawthenticity with others.
Together, we can make breeder information more transparent and accessible for everyone.🐾
