3.13(a)(3) (Non-Critical) – Veterinary care for dogs.
* There was no recorded date for annual fecal float testing for 30 dogs. Annual fecal float testing is important for the health of the animals. Fecal float testing is done to ensure that there are no active internal parasites. The licensee must ensure that all dogs are receiving vaccinations for contagious and/or deadly diseases of dogs (including rabies, parvovirus, and distemper) and sampling and treatment of parasites and other pests (including fleas, worms, coccidia, giardia, and heartworm) in accordance with a schedule approved by the attending veterinarian. Correct by 6/8/23. This inspection and exit interview were conducted with the licensee. n

2.75(a)(1)(vii)(D) (Non-Critical) – Records: Dealers and exhibitors.
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 as required by the Animal Welfare Act Regulations subpart 2.75(a)(1)(vii)(d). Accurate record keeping is essential so that APHIS inspectors can adequately identify the movement of dogs into and out of the facility, especially in cases of loss or theft. Each dealer shall make, keep, and maintain records for forms which fully and correctly disclose the information concerning each dog purchased or otherwise acquired, owned, held, or which is transported, sold, or otherwise disposed of by that dealer. The records shall include any offspring born to any animal while in his or her control. Correct by maintaining complete records for acquisition by 2 April 2025.

3.13(b)(3) (Non-Critical) – Veterinary care for dogs.
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 program of veterinary care states DAPP vaccines should be given at 6 and 9 weeks of age. The estimated date of administration for this litter of puppies was 7 February 2025 per the facility representative. The last recorded vaccine administration date was 14 January 2025. The licensee states that the vaccines were administered on 7 February 2025, but he did not make a record of it. Distemper and parvovirus are contagious viruses and may cause dehydration, discomfort, and stress if dogs become infected. Medical records are important for APHIS to confirm the medical care prescribed in the program of veterinary care is being followed. Correct by ensuring the names of all vaccines administered and the date of administration is recorded on a medical record which can be made available to APHIS inspectors during an inspection. Correct by 2 April 2025. 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 25 April 2025 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
