2.75(a) (Non-Critical) – Records: Dealers and exhibitors
During the inspection, three Cavalier puppies, less than 16 weeks of age, were not identified on any required USDA records. Although the puppies were microchipped, their identification was not documented on a cage card or a USDA 7005 form. These records are essential for identifying dogs and tracking their movements. Each dealer must make, keep, and maintain records that fully and accurately disclose the date and description of acquisitions, including any offspring born of any animal while in the licensee’s possession or under their control.

3.13(a)(3) (Non-Critical) – Veterinary care for dogs.
The puppy and adult vaccination schedule in the program of veterinary care (PVC) was incomplete and not being followed. According to the PVC, vaccinations for parvovirus and distemper are to be administered at 6 and 8 weeks, with no further doses noted beyond 8 weeks of age. Rabies vaccinations are indicated at 12 weeks, annually and then every three years. The licensee administered two parvovirus vaccinations along with one distemper vaccine to the adults in 2023 with no follow-up does. The licensee is currently administering parvo vaccines to puppies at 4, 5, and 6 weeks, and distemper at 5 weeks. However, no further doses are documented beyond that. There are also five 16-week-old Dachshund puppies that have not received a rabies vaccination. Failure to maintain a complete vaccination schedule, and failure to follow the schedule as directed by the attending veterinarian (AV), increases the risk of preventable disease, infection, and undue pain and suffering. The licensee must work with the AV to ensure a complete and accurate vaccination schedule is developed and followed, in accordance with the PVC and AC guidance for the prevention of contagious and/or deadly diseases.
