72 dogs recorded (50 adults · 22 puppies).
Boston Terrier female very thin
A red and white Boston Terrier female (m/c #700u913) was observed to be very thin. The ribs, backbone and hips were easily seen. The owner stated that she had 6 puppies that had been recently weaned and now she was in an enclosure with a male dog who ate most of the food. There was no consultation with a veterinarian to establish a diagnosis and to provide a correct treatment for this dog. Poor body condition can be the result of parasites, inadequate nutrition, or an underlying medical condition. It is important for the health and well being of the dogs for each dealer or exhibitor to establish and maintain programs of adequate veterinary care that include the use of appropriate methods to prevent, control, diagnose, and treat diseases and injuries. The dog must be evaluated by a veterinarian within 3 days of this inspection, to know with certainty the problem and the correct treatment.

The temperature at the time of the inspection was 46 degrees F and the temperature of the previous night was less than 30 degrees F. Animals that expend energy to stay warm may not thrive and increases the risk of sickness. Due to the young age of the puppies, the temperatures at this time of year and their apparent lack of acclimation as illustrated by 3 puppies shivering, they must not be kept outdoors. The owner was instructed to move the dams and litters to the shelter building by close of business of this day-19 February 2020
Golden Retriever and Poodle shelters lacked bedding(Direct)
In the outdoor enclosures housing the large breed dogs, there are 4 enclosures in use. One enclosure has a Golden Retriever female with five 4.5 week old puppies and 2 plastic barrels used for shelter. There is no bedding or wind break and rain break. Two puppies in this litter were observed to be shivering. The enclosure next to this one housed a Poodle with 7 puppies approximately 5 weeks of age. There was a shelter but it had no wind break or rain break and no bedding. One puppy from this litter was observed to be shivering. The temperature at the time of inspection was 46 degrees F. The temperature the previous night was less than 30 degrees F (source: National Weather Service). Adequate shelters are important for protection from the weather elements and as a place of safety for dogs. Shelter must be provided for the dogs and maintained at all times. A wind break and rain break is necessary to protect the dogs from the wind, rain and other harsh weather elements by preventing the wind and rain from entering the shelter. Adequate bedding material is necessary for the dogs to have protection from the colder temperatures and to maintain body heat. Lack of appropriate bedding in cold environments increases the risks of sickness and hypothermia situations. Sufficient clean dry bedding material is necessary to provide protection when the temperature is less than 50 degrees F. More bedding material is necessary when the temperature is less than 35F degrees for the dogs to burrow into and remain clean and dry and have better protection.
