The Program of Veterinary Care is incomplete and the schedule for the physical examination of the dogs by the attending veterinarian is missing.

Each dealer must follow an appropriate program of veterinary care that is developed, documented in writing, and signed by the attending veterinarian and includes a complete physical examination from head to tail of each dog by the attending veterinarian not less than once every 12 months. The licensee must add the schedule for the physical examinations of the adult dogs and puppies to the program of veterinary care and ensure that each dog receives the physical examination in order to support their health and well-being. To be corrected by: The schedule of examinations must be documented by 14-March-2023. All dogs must receive the physical examination not less than once every 12 months from this day forward.
