3.1(e) (Non-Critical) – Housing facilities, general.
There were two containers of bedding for dogs that were lidded yet not leakproof. Containers of bedding that are not leakproof does not fully protect the bedding from spoilage, contamination, and vermin infestation, which can cause disease hazards in dogs. All open supplies of bedding must be kept in leakproof containers with tightly fitting lids to prevent contamination and spoilage.

3.1(f) (Non-Critical) – Housing facilities, general.
There was a trash container in the housing facility that did not have a lid on it. Keeping trash containers without lids on them does not fully minimize contamination and disease risks in the animal housing facility, creating the potential for disease hazards in dogs. Trash containers in housing facilities and in food storage and food preparation areas must be leak-proof and must have tightly fitted lids on them at all times.

2.40(b)(2) (Non-Critical) – Attending veterinarian and adequate veterinary care (dealers and exhibitors).
There are five dogs (‘Candy’, F, Wht Poodle; ‘Trisha’, F Blk/tan Yorkie; ‘Cindy’, F, Blk/gry Poodle; ‘Bella’, F, wht/gry Poodle; ‘Sandy’, F, bro/wht Shitzu) that have multiple mats on their bellies, feet, back of the thighs and face around the ears or eyes. The mats are down to the skin and numerous in quantity on each dog. While there is no skin damage, the mats closeness to the skin cause a tightness/pulling that can cause dicomfort to the regulated animal. There is one dog named ‘Reddy’ a male poodle that was partially shaved on his back several weeks prior, however there are remaining mats on the back of the thighs/back end of the dog that had not been removed. There were five dogs with moderately long nails (‘Reddy’, M, red Poodle; ‘Hobie’, M, tri-color Corgie; ‘Kisha’, F, brn/blk Yorkie; ‘Mara’, F, white Bishon and ‘Sandy’, F, brn/why Shitzu). Each of these dogs had long nails that caused their toes to twist to the side, or not lie in a normal position when standing on a flat surface. The nails were approximately 1 to 1.5 inches in length and had not been trimmed in several weeks. Haircoats on dogs with long or curly hair that are not brushed or trimmmed regularly can become matted to a degree that can cause unnecessary pain or discomfort. The mats as they grow larger and tighten on the skin can cause skin issues or sores if adequate grooming is not done. Nails that are not trimmed regularly can become a hazard to the regulated animal causing injury to themselves by getting the nails caught on fencing or objects within thier primary enclosure or in their outdoor run area. Possible injuries could also occur to that animal by twisting of the toes due to the foot not lying flat on floor surfaces or could cause possible injury to puppies or other dogs they are housed with if they are stepped on or scratched while in play activities. The licensee must provide regular grooming for the regulated animals in order to prevent and control matted haricoats and over grown long nails that distort the normal posture of the feet when stnading on a flat surface, or can be of risk of injury to the dog or its kennel mates/puppies. There must be methods utilized to prevent or control veterinary care issues including matted haricoats and long nails.
