Stephen Schrock – Shady Lawn Kennel LLC | Dog Breeder in Iowa

3.6(a)(2)(x) (Non-Critical) – Primary enclosures.
One enclosure containing one adult husky and one adult eskimo is constructed with raised plastic flooring. The flooring has shifted along one side creating a gap between the side fence panel and the floor. The inspector measured the gap and found it to be larger than the eskimo’s front foot. The gap is large enough that the dog’s foot and leg could pass through. Gaps large enough to allow a dog’s foot and leg to pass through could cause injury to the dog. Primary enclosures must be constructed in a manner that protects the dogs’ feet and legs from injury and does not allow the feet to pass through any openings in the floor. The licensee must alter the flooring in a manner that eliminates the ability of the dog’s foot and leg to pass through the gap. The licensee must ensure that the primary enclosures are safe for the dogs at all times. 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 19-December-2022 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.
