3.1(a) (Non-Critical) – Housing facilities, general.
A cable is hanging down into one enclosure that needs to be secured for the safety of the dogs. An enclosure adjacent to this one has chain link that is no longer secured at the base of the enclosure and is protruding into the enclosure. These two items need to be addressed to keep the enclosures in good repair and for the safety of the dogs.

3.1(c)(1)(i) (Non-Critical) – Housing facilities, general.
Several of the support beams for the outdoor enclosures are showing signs of rust where the doors are connected to the concrete and a few of the sections are rusted through creating sharp edges and impacting the structural integrity of the frame. One metal support bar along the far enclosure is rusted out underneath the bar creating a sharp edged area 12 inches long. Another metal beam coming down vertically is rusted through near the ground creating a gap with sharp edges in the metal. These sections of the primary enclosures must be addressed to keep the enclosures in good repair and for the safety of the dogs. This is a 1st Re-License Inspection for a Class “A” license. The inspection and exit briefing were conducted with the applicant. All items must be in compliance within (2) more inspection(s) or by July 5, 2023 or the applicant will forfeit the license fee and must wait 6 months to reapply. Please contact your inspector to schedule your next Re-License Inspection. Regulated activity can continue under your existing USDA license until it expires. n

2.126(b) (Non-Critical) – Access and inspection of records and property; submission of itineraries.
A responsible adult was not available to accompany APHIS Officials during the inspection process at 12:50 on Jan 15, 2025. The inspector attempted to contact the licensee by calling the phone number listed, knocking on the door and waiting 30 minutes. Failure to provide access to the facility, animals, and records for inspection is a serious violation of the AWA and regulations. Failure to comply may result in enforcement action. End Section

3.11(c) (Non-Critical) – Cleaning, sanitization, housekeeping, and pest control.
Housekeeping around the kennel needs to be addressed. There is an accumulation of dust on the ceiling fans and heater in the building. There is spilled liquid on the bottom of the fridge that needs to be cleaned. There are two empty outdoor runs that have old feces that needs to be removed. Lastly, the wheel barrow used to clean is left outside the kennel adjacent to an outdoor run filled with recently removed shavings, feces and debris. These areas need to be addressed to keep the building clean and in good repair for the overall health of the dogs.
