To help protect the health of the dogs ensure to repair or replace the cracked flooring in these areas so that the whole floor can be readily cleaned and sanitized. ***Correct by 5 July 2023.

Female Cavalier King Charles dog (tag #93)'s left eye was noted to be less moist as her right eye, had some mild discharge on the surface and mild reddening of the white part of the eyeball. This condition was not under treatment at time of inspection but was noted in her April physical exam and the facility representative indicated was under prescribed treatment then until medication ran out and it had gotten better. Observations of her eye today suggest the condition is not resolved and needs to be re-evaluated by the attending veterinarian (AV) to ensure treatment can be given to prevent discomfort and worsening of the condition. Ensure that the AV is contacted to re-evaluate this dog's condition and follow the prescribed treatment plan. ***Correct by 11/23/2024.
