3.1(c)(2) (Non-Critical) – Housing facilities, general.
Two primary enclosures contain carpets that are in disrepair with frayed edges. An enclosure housing an adult female dog with 4 puppies and another enclosure housing an adult dog has carpet that is torn and damaged. Frayed edges can be injurious to the regulated animal as they could ingest the material or could cause entrapment. All surfaces must be maintained on a regular basis. Surfaces of housing facilities—including houses, dens, and other furniture-type fixtures and objects within the facility—that cannot be readily cleaned and sanitized, must be replaced when worn or soiled. The carpets must be maintained without frayed edges. Correct by 8-AUG-2023.

3.1(c)(3) (Non-Critical) – Housing facilities, general.
Enclosures are not being cleaned properly. In two sheltered enclosures housing 5 adult dogs, the door between the inside and outside portion of the enclosure and the surrounding wall are soiled with a buildup of brown material. Inadequate and infrequent cleaning and sanitization allows for the growth of disease-causing agents that may increase the risk of health hazards towards the animals. Appropriate cleaning and sanitization of the surfaces must include removal of the buildup of brown material found and to prevent accumulation of this material. All surfaces of housing facilities must be cleaned and sanitized when necessary to satisfy generally accepted husbandry standards and practices. Correct by ensuring hard surfaces with which the dogs come into contact with are spot cleaned daily and sanitized in accordance with 3.11 (b) of this sub part to prevent accumulation of excreta and reduce disease hazards. Correct by 8-AUG-2023.
