3.13(a)(1) (Non-Critical) – Veterinary care for dogs.
* The last recorded scheduled visit for 114 adult dogs by the attending veterinarian was on 8/4/22. Regularly scheduled visits are important to determine if all aspects of animal care (nutrition, health, environment, water, and air quality, etc.) are being provided to the dogs. The licensee must have regularly scheduled visits, not less than once every 12 months, by the attending veterinarian to the facility where animals are kept, to assess and ensure the adequacy of veterinary care and other aspects of animal care and use. Correct by 7/17/24.

3.13(a)(2) (Non-Critical) – Veterinary care for dogs.
* Documentation of the last recorded physical examination of the dogs were not provided for review at the time of inspection. Physical examination is necessary to evaluate the overall health and physical body condition (internal and external) of every animal at the facility. In addition, physical exams give the attending veterinarian important information about the dog’s health and helps to catch potential health issues before they become problems. The licensee must have a complete physical examination from head to tail of each dog by the attending veterinarian not less than once every 12 months. Correct by 7/17/ 24.

3.13(a)(3) (Non-Critical) – Veterinary care for dogs.
* The written program of veterinary care is incomplete for 114 dogs. Under the parasite control program treatment plan for ectoparasites it states, “as needed” and there is no specific frequency or number of animals noted for sampling dogs for blood (heartworms) or intestinal parasites (fecal float). Not describing how many dogs need to be sampled for heartworm or fecal parasites documented in the program of veterinary care doesn’t ensure that an adequate number of dogs are being tested. Ectoparasites including fleas, intestinal parasites such as coccidia and giardia, and heartworm, are common causes of disease in dogs and, if left undetected and not properly treated, can lead to serious illness. Correct by ensuring all required information listed in section 3.13(a)(3) is included in the program of veterinary care in accordance with a schedule approved by the attending veterinarian. Correct by 7/17/24.

3.13(a)(4) (Non-Critical) – Veterinary care for dogs.
* The USDA form 7002 A was incomplete. Under the preventative care and treatment care for properly trimmed nails, it states “as needed” for 114 dogs. Care and treatment of toenails is necessary for the overall health of the dogs. Outlining what routine care will be provided is essential to the health and wellbeing of the dogs. When the program of vet care is missing information on how the licensee provides for the health and well-being of all dogs on the premise it is not considered to be adequate veterinary care. It also must include when the veterinarian will be consulted. The licensee must consult with the attending veterinarian to develop a preventative care and treatment plan to ensure properly trimmed nails are addressed. Correct by 7/17/24. This inspection and exit interview were conducted with the licensee. n
