2.40(b)(2) (Non-Critical) – Attending veterinarian and adequate veterinary care (dealers and exhibitors).
Four dogs were identified during the inspection with poor dental health. Male King Charles Cavalier Spaniel (DOB 2020, #933000320409974) has a thick buildup of dark brown material on the upper right and left cheek teeth and nearly the entire surface of both of the upper canine teeth. A line of grey material is located along the upper right gum line. The gums are moderately reddened and some saliva is coating the hair along and under the lower jaw. This dog was identified by the Attending Veterinarian during the annual exam on June 17, 2025 as having “bad teeth”, but no treatment plan has been provided or planned by the time of the inspection. Female Papillon (#93000320268090) has a thick buildup of dark brown material covering the entire surface of the upper left and right cheek teeth and nearly the entire surface of the upper canine teeth and upper incisors. The buildup on the upper left cheek teeth is so thick the shape of the teeth are no longer observable. A mass of creamy white material is located behind the upper right canine tooth, and a line of gray material is located along the upper right and left gum line. The gums are moderately reddened and appear to have receded away from several of the teeth. This dog was identified by the Attending Veterinarian during the annual exam on June 17, 2025 as having “bad teeth”, but no treatment plan has been provided or planned by the time of the inspection. Male King Charles Cavalier Spaniel (DOB 2018, #932001000611211) has a thick buildup of dark brown material on the entire surface of the upper left and right cheek teeth and the lower left cheek teeth. The buildup is also covering nearly the entire surface of both of the upper canine teeth and is also covering nearly half the surface of the upper incisors. A thick mass of creamy brown material is located along the gum line directly behind the upper left canine tooth. The gums are moderately reddened. The condition of this dog’s teeth had not been identified by the facility. Male Bichon (DOB 2019, #933000320233966) has a thick buildup of yellow/brown material on the entire surface of the upper right and left cheek teeth and along the gum line of both of the upper canine teeth. A line of grey material is located along the upper left gum line. The gums are slightly reddened except along the upper right gum line where they are dark red. The condition of this dog’s teeth had not been identified by the facility. Poor dental health can cause pain and discomfort as well as lead to further health issues. Each dealer must use appropriate methods to prevent, control, diagnose, and treat diseases and injuries. These four dogs must be evaluated by a veterinarian for an accurate diagnosis and to develop an effective treatment plan. The licensee must ensure that all dogs receive adequate veterinary care at all times. To be corrected by: November 25, 2025

3.6(a)(2)(x) (Non-Critical) – Primary enclosures.
At least two puppies were observed with their feet and legs passing through the openings of the raised flooring. Openings in the flooring that are large enough to allow the feet and legs to pass through could cause injury to the puppy. Primary enclosures must have floors constructed in a manner that protects the dogs’ feet and legs from injury, and do not allow the dogs’ feet to pass through any openings. The licensee must alter the flooring in a manner that protects the puppies from injury and does not allow their feet and legs to pass through any openings. The licensee must ensure the enclosures are safe for the dogs at all times. To be corrected by: December 01, 2025 There are two enclosures in Building 2 and one enclosure in Building 4 that have broken wire flooring. These affected enclosures contain a total of five dogs. The broken floor in each enclosure is located along the bottom of the divider fencing. Broken flooring may cause injury to the dogs’ feet and legs and could collapse should the damaged floor fail to support the weight of the animals. Primary enclosures must have floors constructed in a manner that protects the dogs’ feet and legs from injury. The licensee must alter the broken sections of flooring in a manner that eliminates the risk of injury to the dogs. The licensee must ensure that the enclosures are safe for the dogs at all times.

3.13(a)(4) (Non-Critical) – Veterinary care for dogs.
The facility is following a dental plan that is documented in the Program of Veterinary Care and approved by their Attending Veterinarian. This plan consists of providing dog treats to keep plaque down and monitoring by the veterinarian, but this plan is ineffective at maintaining clean and healthy teeth as four dogs were identified with poor dental health. Poor dental health can cause pain and discomfort to the animal as well as lead to further health issues. An adequate program of veterinary care would address veterinary concerns and provide sufficient guidelines on when and how the veterinarian will need to be consulted on certain conditions. The licensee must consult with the Attending Veterinarian to develop and document in writing an effective plan to maintain clean and healthy teeth. To be corrected by: November 25, 2025 This inspection and exit interview were conducted with the facility representatives. n

2.40(b)(2) (Non-Critical [REPEAT]) – Attending veterinarian and adequate veterinary care (dealers and exhibitors).
Female Eskimo (microchip # 932002000583, DOB 01-14-19) has poor dental health. Nearly the entire surface of the upper right and left cheek teeth are encased in a yellow-grey colored organic material. At least 3/4ths of the surface of the upper right and left canine teeth are covered in the material and a thin build up of the material is located on the surface of the upper front teeth. Poor dental health could cause pain and discomfort to the dog as well as lead to further health issues. Each dealer shall use appropriate methods to prevent, control, diagnose, and treat diseases and injuries. This dog must be evaluated by a veterinarian for an accurate diagnosis and to develop an effective treatment plan. The licensee must ensure each dog receives adequate veterinary care at all times. This inspection and exit interview were conducted with the facility representative. Additional Inspectors: Emily Steele, VETERINARY MEDICAL OFFICER n
